Snow in Argenteuil - Claude Monet
This painting depicts a winter landscape in Argenteuil, a town northwest of Paris, where Monet lived for several years. The painting captures the beauty of the snowy landscape, with houses and trees covered in a white blanket. The contrast between the cold colours of the snow and the warmer shades of the buildings creates a peaceful yet lively atmosphere.
Monet's impressionist technique of quick, light brushstrokes conveys the texture and luminosity of the snow, as well as the shadows and reflections created by the winter light. The presence of a few human figures brings a touch of life to the scene, emphasizing the harmony between man and nature.
