While visiting with Oleg at the MIA, I stumbled upon this.
Claude Monet's The Japanese Bridge c. 1923-1925.
The color doesn't do it justice. I have been to the Louve and seen the Mona Lisa. And, I have seen several Rembrant's in London. But, I have never had the chance to see a Monet.
I was amazed at the brush strokes and the layering.
