The Bridge of Argenteuil (Caillebotte)

The Argenteuil Bridge

Magnificent reproduction of The Argenteuil Bridgeby Gustave Caillebotte.

Caillebotte paints this bridge crossing the Seine in an impressionist style of thick and imprecise brushstrokes, using a strange framing to guide our attention to the protagonist of the painting: the play of light and shadow under the arch of the bridge. The reflection of the wall in the water, composed of crossed brushstrokes of all colors, is a sample of the mastery of the author. The whole with the reflected wall, which combines illuminated and dark areas with a strong contrast, gives this area of the painting a high realism when one forgets the forms and squints to see the colour in the shadows.

This same bridge had been painted seven times before by Monet.
