The Japanese Footbridge

Story

An arched wooden footbridge crosses a quiet pond thick with water lilies, framed by weeping willows and dense green growth. The scene glows with layered brushwork, built up in oil in 1899. Claude Monet, a French painter associated with Impressionism, captured this corner of water and foliage with loose, shimmering strokes. The piece came to the National Gallery of Art as a gift from Victoria Nebeker Coberly, Walter H. and Leonore Annenberg.
