About this artwork
This painting is one of several works by Claude Monet depicting the Houses of Parliament in London, part of his acclaimed 'London Series'. The series explores the atmospheric effects of fog and light on the iconic landmark.
Did you know?
Monet painted his 'London Series' primarily from his hotel balcony overlooking the Thames, capturing the Houses of Parliament and Charing Cross Bridge under varying light and atmospheric conditions. He would often work on several canvases simultaneously, rotating between them as the light changed, a testament to his dedication to capturing transient moments.
