“The Grand Canal, Venice” Claude Monet – Artwork on USEUM

This painting shows an impressionistic view of the Grand Canal in Venice Italy. It includes a depiction of the Doge’s Palace placed centrally and on the right of the canvas, glimmering in hazy pink and white hues. On the left, poles from the canal protrude, darker than the palace, making them look closer to the viewer. The front center of the painting shows the water of the canal with the reflection of the Palace hovering in its soft waves. This painting is an apt example of Monet’s impressionist style with quick brushstrokes and blending of color.
