Claude Monet’s "Waterloo Bridge, Gray Weather" (1900) is a captivating Impressionist painting capturing the essence of a foggy London day. The painting is characterized by its soft, hazy brushstrokes, creating an ethereal atmosphere. The imposing Waterloo Bridge, rendered in muted blues and grays, fades into the distant cityscape, which is obscured by a veil of fog. Monet's mastery of light and color is evident in the depiction of the shimmering water and the subtle reflections on the bridge, emphasizing the ephemeral nature of the moment. This work showcases Monet's fascination with the interplay of light and atmosphere, defining his artistic style.
