Vetheuil, Prairie Inondee 1881

"Vetheuil, Prairie Inondee" is a landscape painting by Claude Monet, created in 1881. The painting depicts a flooded meadow in the village of Vetheuil, France. The scene is dominated by a vast expanse of water, with the village and its church in the background. Monet's signature Impressionist style is evident in the loose brushstrokes and use of light and color. The painting captures the fleeting moments of the natural world, as well as the atmospheric conditions of a overcast day. This artwork is representative of Monet's exploration of plein air painting and his focus on capturing the effects of light and weather on the landscape.
