Regattas in Argenteuil, painting by Claude Monet

PAY IN THREE INSTALLMENTS WITH PAYPAL

Claude Monet's painting, "Regattas at Argenteuil," painted around 1872, captures a glimpse of life on the Seine, near Paris. This period was crucial to Monet and the development of Impressionism.

During these years, Argenteuil was a lively nautical center and a popular destination for day trips by Parisians. Monet moved there with his family and the surrounding countryside, along with the river, became a constant source of inspiration for his works.

The painting shows Monet's predilection for modern themes and contemporary life. Regattas, a growing leisure activity at the time, offered the painter the opportunity to study the effects of light on water and sails, as well as the movement and atmosphere of a sporting event.

Technically, the painting is an example of how Monet sought to capture the immediate visual impression. The focus is not on the precise details of the boats or figures, but rather on the whole, the interaction between light, water and sky.
