Painting Description
''Houses of Parliament, Westminster'' by Claude Oscar Monet is a series of paintings created by the French impressionist painter during his stays in London, primarily between 1900 and 1901. The series showcases the Palace of Westminster, home of the British Parliament, from various perspectives and at different times of day and weather conditions. Monet's fascination with the interplay of light, water, and architecture is evident in these works, where he captures the ephemeral and atmospheric qualities of the London fog and the Thames River.
Monet's ''Houses of Parliament'' series consists of approximately 19 paintings, all of which exhibit his signature loose brushwork and vibrant use of color. These paintings were part of a larger campaign by Monet to document the effects of light and atmosphere on a single subject, a theme he explored with other series such as those of haystacks, poplars, and the Rouen Cathedral.
Painted from a vantage point on the terrace of St. Thomas' Hospital, Monet's view across the river allowed him to study the Gothic Revival façade of the Houses of Parliament at various times of day. The misty London environment provided a natural filter that diffused light in a way that was particularly appealing to Monet, allowing him to experiment with subtle color shifts and the dissolution of architectural forms.
The ''Houses of Parliament'' series is celebrated for its technical innovation and its contribution to the impressionist movement. Monet's work captures not only the physical appearance of the scene but also the transient quality of light and the artist's own perception of the subject. These paintings are held in various public and private collections around the world and continue to be the subject of scholarly study and public admiration for their artistic and historical significance.
