OIL PAINTING: Argenteuil, Late Afternoon , 1872
Like most of Monet oil paintings, Argenteuil, Late Afternoon shows Monet's fascination with the ever-changing quality of light and color in different weather, and at different times of the day. Against the bright sky, these deep shadow tones capture a breezy late afternoon in summer.
