The Garden Gate 1881

"The Garden Gate" (1881) by Claude Monet, exemplifies the Impressionist style through its loose brushstrokes and focus on capturing fleeting moments of light and color. The painting depicts a garden gate leading to a path, with vibrant foliage framing the scene. Monet's signature use of short, visible brushstrokes creates a sense of movement and atmosphere, drawing the viewer into the garden's tranquil beauty. The soft light and dappled shadows further enhance the painting's evocative quality.
