The year 1897 saw the creation of one of the most remarkable paintings by the French impressionist artist, Claude Monet. The painting titled “Morning on the Seine near Giverny” brilliantly captures the ethereal beauty of the Seine River, as viewed from Monet’s home in the small town of Giverny. Monet’s commitment to plein-air painting, meaning painting in the outdoors to directly capture the effects of light and its reflection, is highly evident in this masterpiece.

“Morning on the Seine near Giverny” embodies the essence of Impressionism, with Monet’s signature style of portraying landscapes through fluid brushwork and keen observation of natural light. In this painting, the reflections of the surrounding foliage on the water’s surface create a calming, serene ambiance that transports the viewer to that tranquil morning on the Seine.

The uniqueness of this painting lies in its transformative quality, with the river’s surface becoming a canvas in itself for the fleeting effects of light and weather. Monet’s fascination with the water’s surface, which he considered a mirror of infinite transformations, led him to create an entire series of paintings depicting the Seine at different times of the day and in different weather conditions.

Claude Monet “Morning on the Seine near Giverny” is a testament to the artist’s exceptional ability to encapsulate the ever-changing nature of light, a theme that defined his later works. It is a testimony to Monet’s dedication to Impressionism, his love for the French countryside, and his unwavering observation of the natural world.
