River Thawing near Vetheuil 1880

Claude Monet's "River Thawing near Vetheuil," painted in 1880, captures the delicate beauty of a winter landscape. The Impressionist master uses vibrant colors and loose brushstrokes to depict the thawing river, with patches of ice still floating on the water's surface. The pale pink sky contrasts with the dark silhouettes of trees lining the riverbanks, creating a sense of tranquility and the promise of spring.
