Claude Monet's painting, known as The Studio Boat , or in French Le Bateau-atelier , painted around 1874, transports us to a crucial moment for the artist and for the history of art. In this period, Monet was consolidating his pictorial research, oriented to capturing the transitory effects of light and atmosphere, distinctive elements of what would be called Impressionism.
The scene depicts a boat specially set up as a floating studio on the River Seine, probably near Argenteuil.
The work therefore documents the artist's working method, his dedication to direct observation and his desire to escape traditional ateliers to paint in the open air.
The boat-atelier is a significant testimony to his artistic evolution and his commitment to defining a new way of perceiving and representing reality.
