Bordighera - Claude Monet
This impressionist painting depicts a sunny scene in Bordighera, a charming coastal town on the Italian Riviera. The composition highlights the lush vegetation. The quick brushstrokes and bright colours convey the bright and warm atmosphere of this summer day.
Monet's palette is dominated by shades of green, blue and ochre, which create a visual harmony and reflect the bright light of the Mediterranean sun. The contrasts between the warm and cool colours reinforce the depth of the landscape and emphasise the different textures of the vegetation.
The buildings in the background, in pastel colours, bring a touch of human life to the painting, without distracting from the natural landscape. The whole composition evokes a peaceful and serene atmosphere, typical of the Italian "dolce vita".
