woman with a parasol facing right claude monetThe similarity of this work to Woman with a Parasol, painted 10 years earlier, is striking. Here Claude Monet is painting the daughter of his second wife, Suzanne Hosched. A misunderstanding quickly arouses our curiosity: the wind is blowing from right to left, while the grass seems to be leaning to the right. We are here in full impressionism: the artist goes beyond the strict reality, to exploit the feeling, suggested with plays of light and color.
