The Impressionists at Argenteuil
Monet paints thick with strange combination of colour in later life probably because his eyesight was
failing. He naturally was having difficultly coming to terms with blindness, every artist nightmare. he had a
accurate memory for colour and would get his stepdaughter to help with the colour before applying it to the
canvas.
Monet has crystallized a sound knowledge of the theories of colour perception, intentionally using warm nest to cool and
yellow next to blue to vitalize his painting
