🎨 Discover the Artistic Universe of Claude Monet in London

Claude Monet's stay in London, between 1899 and 1904, was marked by a growing fascination with British light filtered through the fog. From his hotel overlooking the Thames, the French artist tirelessly observes the Palace of Westminster, of which he will paint more than forty canvases. These works, known as the London Parliament series, testify to an obsessive quest: to capture the changing light, the effects of fog, the flaming sunsets, and this urban impressionist atmosphere that makes London unique.

Inspired by Turner and Whistler, Monet transforms a political monument into a artistic icon, playing with reflections, contrasts, and transparencies. These are paintings of patience, silence, study — works where light becomes a subject in its own right.

🖌️ Pictorial Style & History of Paintings of the London Parliament Series by Claude Monet

In the Parliament of London series, Claude Monet showcases the full richness of his Impressionist style, driven by a vibrant brushstroke and infinite shades of blue, orange, and purple. Each canvas stands out for its unique way of rendering the diffused light of the English capital: the heavy sky, the thick fog, the reflections of the Thames, and the gothic structure of the building almost fading into the atmosphere.

Painted in oil on canvas, these works are the result of a rigorous method: Monet creates numerous sketches on site, before reworking them in Giverny. The Impressionist series painting allows him to explore the same motif under extreme variations of light, from sunrise to sunset. Thus, the Parliament becomes successively solemn, mystical, incandescent, depending on the time of day or the intensity of the mist.

These paintings are part of a tradition of Impressionist art in Great Britain, but also assert Monet's own identity: a painter of light, of suspended time, and of atmospheric emotion.

🔍 Thematic Zoom – Claude Monet in London

Claude Monet's stay in London, between 1899 and 1904, is one of the most enigmatic chapters of his career. Fleeing political troubles in France and seeking new landscapes to capture, he discovers in the British capital a fascinating motif: the Palace of Westminster, set on the misty banks of the Thames.

Housed at the Savoy Hotel, with a direct view of the river, Monet sets up his easel at the window and paints, day after day, in all weathers. He does not seek to document London, but to capture its atmospheric effects, its changing light play, its reflections on the water, and this suspended ambiance that makes each moment unique.

It is at this time that he begins his series of paintings of the Parliament of London, alongside views of the Charing Cross bridge or the Waterloo bridge. These works perfectly convey the impressionist idea that light transforms the world, and that only painting can capture its fleeting nuances.
