In 1908 and 1909, Monet traveled abroad to Venice,. The artist was fascinated by the magnificence of Venice, and this was reflected in a series of canvases, which, because of an unusual interpretation of light, look like fantastic landscapes. Some of these paintings Monet wrote from memory, immediately upon returning home to Giverny.
He continued to “remember” in the colors of Venice and later. The lines of the artist’s diary testify to the bright unforgettable impression of this trip: “Both of us,” writes Monet, referring to his wife, who had already died by that time, “were happy in Venice, and nostalgia for this city does not leave me, prompting and refer again to this symphony of stone, water and light. “
One of the most unusual paintings in the collection of the Bridgestone Museum is considered to be Venice, Twilight by Claude Monet – an echo of the wizard’s most wonderful trip.
