Impression Sunrise

Claude Monet’s “Impression, Sunrise,” painted in 1872, captures a misty morning in the port of Le Havre with bold, loose brushstrokes. The fiery orange sun contrasts with the cool blues and purples of the sky and water, creating a serene yet vibrant scene. This iconic work, known for giving the Impressionist movement its name, beautifully illustrates Monet’s innovative use of light and color.
