About this picture
Cliff Walk at Pourville is a public-domain painting by Claude Monet, dated 1882. Oil on canvas. The file comes from Art Institute of Chicago.
“Cliff Walk at Pourville” (1882) belongs to Monet’s habit of staying with one motif — a bridge, a field, a station, the Thames, the lily pond — and painting it again as the light changed.
About the artist
Claude Monet (1840–1926) was a founder of Impressionism. He painted the same motif again and again — haystacks, the Rouen cathedral, the Thames, then the water lilies at Giverny — to catch how light changes.
