Parliament Building, the sun shining through the fog by Claude Monet

“Parliament in London” is the clearest example of the main principle of painting Monet – he does not recognize the objective reality, rejects the immutability of any qualities of objects, and argues that the color and shape of the depicted depends only on momentary lighting.

Outlines of one of the most recognizable buildings in London show through the thick fog illuminated by the last flashes of the setting sun. The spikes of the Westminster Tower pierce the sky with sharp needles. The sun illuminates the restless small waves of the river, painting the water surface in golden hues. Only the magnificent Monet could notice this magnificent, but fleeting beauty, make the time stop, to tell everyone else about it.
