Monet Sunday

When the weather outside is a bit disappointing, where better than to spend the afternoon in the National Gallery, looking at properly important and expensive oil paintings. Here is Monet 's 'Poplars at Epte'

The Poplar Series paintings were made by Claude Monet in the summer and fall of 1891. The magnificent trees were in a marsh along the banks of the Epte River a few kilometers upstream from Monet's home and studio. To reach his floating painting studio that was moored in place he went by small boat up the nearby waterway to where it joined the mainstream.

Back home chilling now before the new work week starts. I hope you have all had a good weekend.
