Waves Breaking 1881

Claude Monet's "Waves Breaking" from 1881 is a striking example of Impressionism, capturing the dynamic energy of the sea. Monet's characteristic loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors create a sense of movement and light. The painting's focus on the turbulent waves, depicted in shades of blue and white, evokes a feeling of both power and tranquility. This piece, like many of Monet's sea paintings, reflects his fascination with capturing the fleeting effects of nature.
