Did you know?
Monet often featured his wife, Camille Doncieux, in his early Impressionist works, and she is widely believed to be the model for 'Springtime'. This painting is an excellent example of Monet's dedication to capturing fleeting moments of light and atmosphere outdoors, a core principle of Impressionism. The way light filters through the leaves and creates luminous patches on the dress and ground is particularly remarkable.
