Famous Paintings of Claude Monet - Parliament House at Sunset (1900-01)

 At the turn of the century, in the “dark soul” of London, Monet found an elusive, fascinating creature, which forced him to push his art to its limits. The ethereal dimension of paintings like this work, the delicate gradations of color and the mysterious atmosphere would pave the way for Monet's crowning artistic achievement: his Nymphéas. Volatile, erratic and unpredictable, London's atmosphere, created by moving fog and subtle lighting effects, provided Monet with a subject worthy of his boldest ambitions. “It was a miracle,” Mirbeau commented. It is almost a paradox that one can, with impasto on canvas, create impalpable matter, imprisoning the sun... Yet it is not a miracle, not a paradox : that is the logical result of Claude Monet's art.”(Christie's, New York - Oil on canvas, 81.3 x 93 cm)
