Did you know?
Claude Monet spent the summer of 1882 intensely painting the dramatic coastal landscapes around Varengeville and Pourville in Normandy. This period marked a significant exploration of new motifs, allowing him to master the capture of fleeting light and atmospheric effects on these rugged cliffs and secluded paths. His rapid output during this time solidified his reputation for capturing the essence of a moment rather than its strict photographic likeness.
