Description

Leicester Square At Night by Claude Monet is a masterpiece of French Impressionism that has captivated art lovers for over a century. This painting, created in 1899, is one of Monet's last works and shows his ability to capture the atmosphere and light of the night.

Leicester Square At Night is an impressionist painting characterized by its loose brushwork technique and use of bright, vibrant colours. Monet uses a palette of blues, greens, and yellows to create a sense of light and movement in the painting. The composition of the work is impressive, with the square at the center of the painting and the buildings that surround it creating a perfect frame for the scene.

The story behind the painting is fascinating. Monet visited London on several occasions and fell in love with the city and its architecture. Leicester Square was one of his favorite squares and he painted it on several occasions. This particular painting was created after Monet had cataract surgery and his vision was affected. Despite his poor eyesight, Monet managed to create a masterpiece that shows his ability to capture the light and atmosphere of the night.

A little-known aspect of the painting is that Monet created it in his studio in Giverny, France, using photographs he had taken of the square during his visit to London. This demonstrates Monet's ability to create an impressive work of art from his memory and imagination.
