Description
Wind on the hilltop at Argenteuil, and the long grass bends like water. A woman in a pale dress holds her parasol against the bright summer sky, her veil lifting in the breeze, a child half-hidden in the meadow beside her. Clouds race overhead. It is a moment so fleeting that you could miss it by blinking, and so perfect that a painter once spent a whole lifetime trying to catch scenes just like it with nothing but light and color.
A natural gift for the art lover, the museum member, the painting student or the friend who has a print of water lilies above her sofa. Its soft blues suit a sunlit bedroom, a writing desk or a bookshelf filled with art history volumes. Bring it home from a visit to an Impressionist exhibition, or give it to someone who dreams of visiting Giverny in June.
