Claude Monet, 1875
Wind in the dress. A boy in the grass. Sky wide open.
About this work
Woman with a Parasol – Madame Monet and Her Son, painted in 1875, shows Claude Monet's wife Camille and their seven-year-old son Jean on a stroll on a windy summer day, during the years the family lived in Argenteuil. Camille is seen from below against white clouds and a blue sky; her veil and white dress are blown by the wind, and the green underside of her parasol echoes the grass. Jean stands farther back, cut off at the waist by a rise in the ground, which gives the scene its depth. It is a genre painting of a family moment rather than a formal portrait, and it was painted outdoors, quickly, probably in a few hours. At 100 × 81 cm it was Monet's largest work of the 1870s, and it is signed "Claude Monet 75" at lower right. It was one of 18 works by Monet in the second Impressionist exhibition in April 1876. Monet returned to the subject in 1886 with two pictures of his stepdaughter Suzanne, now in the Musée d'Orsay. This painting is in the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
