The

National Gallery of Art in Washington, United States.
The Impressionist Movement
Claude Monet was a leading figure in the Impressionist movement, which sought to capture the fleeting effects of light and color in the natural world. In
The Road Bridge at Argenteuil, Monet used short strokes of pure and unmixed color to create a glowing effect that surrounds the forms appearing in the painting. This technique, known as "optical mixing," creates a sense of movement and vibrancy that is characteristic of Impressionist art.
The Argenteuil Bridge
The subject of
The Road Bridge at Argenteuil is the railway bridge that spans the Seine River in Argenteuil, a town located just outside of
Paris. Monet painted this bridge seven times in 1874, capturing its changing appearance in different lights and seasons. The result is a series of paintings that showcase the artist's ability to convey the transient beauty of the natural world.
