Impression, Sunrise, 1872

Claude Monet

Oil on canvas · 48 x 63 cm

A hazy harbour sketch that gave an entire movement its name.

The painting that named a movement: when Monet showed this misty harbour dawn in 1874, a critic sneered at its 'impression,' and Impressionism had its label. A blazing orange sun and a few loose strokes conjure the whole shimmering scene.
