The Impressionists at Argenteuil. Exhibition National Gallery of Art, Washington
Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - With the exception of Paris, no other site is more closely associated with the birth of impressionism than Argenteuil. Only fifteen minutes by railroad from the heart of the capital, Argenteuil was home to Claude Monet from late 1871 to early 1878, a period that was prolific and revolutionary. It was during his time in Argenteuil that Monet developed his unique vision of landscape painting, at once authentic and idyllic, suffused with light, atmosphere, and the complexities of contemporaneity. At the end of the nineteenth century other avant-garde painters-Eugene Boudin, Gustave Caillebotte, Edouard Manet, Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley-were also drawn to Argenteuil by its beauty, its proximity to Pans, and its association with suburban recreation.
