About this picture
Bordighera is a public-domain painting by Claude Monet, dated 1884. Oil on canvas. The file comes from Art Institute of Chicago.
“Bordighera” (1884) 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.
