The catalogue of an exhibition comparing versions of Monet's
Waterloo Bridge at the Memorial Art Gallery in Rochester, NY.
Impressionist master Claude Monet began over forty versions of
Waterloo Bridge during his three London sojourns between 1899 and
1901. He viewed his paintings of the landmark bridge both
individually and as an ensemble, collectively expressing his sense
of the essential subject - the atmosphere and colors of the
fog-bound landscape of London's Thames River. Monet struggled to
complete these paintings after his return to France, where he
re-worked many of the canvases in his Giverny studio, releasing
them for sale over the course of several years. The exhibition
Monet's Waterloo Bridge: Vision and Process brings together eight
paintings from the famous London series. Scholarly essays and an
in-depth technical study of the Memorial Art Gallery's Waterloo
Bridge, Veiled Sun (1903) explore Monet's artistic vision as well
as the process by which he struggled to achieve that vision. NANCY
