Vetheuil in the Fog by Claude Monet is one of those images that never dates. Our studio recreates it as a hand painted oil painting — textured, color-rich, and ready to hang as canvas wall art in an entryway, study, or reception area.
Vétheuil dans le brouillard
1879
Oil on canvas
Musée Marmottan, France.
Vétheuil dans le brouillard is a painting of the town of Vétheuil and the church as seen from across the Seine river. This painting was painted when Monet was still part of the Impressionist group, and, as you can see, it is painted in a very Impressionistic style. Monet might have laid down a coat of white or blue paint over the painting and this could be why these are the dominant colors in this painting. "Brouillard" means "fog" in French and this painting looks very foggy. I love the way Monet uses reflection in this painting. When I flipped a reproduction of the painting upside down the only thing that alerted me to the fact that this was wrong was that Monet's signature was on the top instead of the bottom, and it was upside down! Another thing I like about this painting is the way Monet uses light to give the painting a foggy feel.
Monet told a story about offering Vétheuil dans le brouillard to a man named Jean-Baptiste Faure. Faure decided not to buy the painting at the time. Many years later he saw it again and wanted to buy it from Monet. Faure didn't recognize it as the painting Monet had tried to sell him years before. Monet refused to sell it, even for ten times the price Faure offered him. In fact, Monet kept the painting, and when he died it was inherited by his son.
