Vétheuil in Winter
Claude Monet (1878–79)
Claude Monet’s Vétheuil in Winter renders a riverside village in a <strong>silvery, frost-laden light</strong>, where the Seine carries <strong>broken ice</strong> past clustered houses and the tall church tower. The scene’s <strong>granular blue-green palette</strong> and softened edges make the town appear to crystallize out of air and water, while small boats and figures signal quiet persistence.
