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
