Lunch on the Grass 1865

Claude Monet's "Lunch on the Grass" (1865) depicts a scene of three figures in a landscape setting. The work is known for its loose brushstrokes and Impressionistic style, capturing a fleeting moment in time. The artist, a leading figure in the Impressionist movement, was known for his innovative use of color and light. The painting's subject matter, featuring figures casually enjoying a meal outdoors, was controversial at the time, challenging traditional academic conventions.
