"Clair de lune" is a painting by the French artist Claude-Joseph Vernet (1714–1789), created in 1762 during the Rococo period, which is characterized by its ornate and highly decorative style. Vernet was renowned for his seascapes and landscape paintings, which often depicted the sublime power of nature and the sea. "Clair de lune," which translates to "moonlight" in English, is a quintessential example of Vernet's mastery in capturing atmospheric effects and his ability to convey mood through landscape.

The painting is part of a series of works that illustrate different times of the day and various weather conditions. "Clair de lune" specifically showcases a tranquil nocturnal scene illuminated by the soft glow of the moon. The composition typically features a serene body of water, reflecting the moonlight, with ships and figures that are dwarfed by the vastness of the natural setting, emphasizing the romantic and contemplative qualities that are often associated with moonlit landscapes.

Vernet's work was highly sought after in his time, especially by the French monarchy and international patrons, for its romantic portrayal of nature and its technical precision. "Clair de lune" is not only a testament to Vernet's skill as a painter but also reflects the 18th-century fascination with the natural world and the exploration of the sublime and picturesque within the arts.

The painting is held in high regard for its historical significance and its contribution to the development of landscape painting in France. It remains an important work for scholars studying the period and is appreciated by art enthusiasts for its beauty and its evocative portrayal of the natural world under the enchantment of moonlight.
