An arch visible by density
The bridge does not need to be redesigned. It appears because its blue-green colors are darker and more continuous than neighboring keys.

Artwork description
Claude Monet · 1918 -1924 · Private collection · Wildenstein 1922
The bridge blends into emerald green, turquoise and midnight blue vegetation. The dark arch crosses the center, while the pool opens in the foreground with a multitude of small pink, white and purple touches.

Look at the work
The curve of the bridge is read in fragments, reinforced by black blues and cold greens. The branches descend from the upper edge and almost close the sky. To the left, a lighter mass advances towards the viewer like a bank covered in foliage.
In the water, gestures become horizontal and shorter. Water lilies form pink and white rosaries, interrupted by turquoise passages. Monet thus maintains a distinct body of water without resorting to a drawn perspective.
The green range initially appears uniform; However, it turns out to be constructed by constantly opposite temperatures and key directions.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.

The bridge does not need to be redesigned. It appears because its blue-green colors are darker and more continuous than neighboring keys.
The yellow greens advance, the turquoise retreats and the black blues deepen the shadows. These gaps must remain perceptible.
The little touches of pink, cream and purple liven up the water. Their irregularity is essential; regular sowing would freeze the pond.
Details and visual documents
The additional images show the difficult-to-read passages in the full view and, where it exists, the actual appearance of the work at the museum.


The exact view measures 1284 × 973 px. Details of 1050 × 430 px and 1050 × 400 px are direct cropping of the same W1922 file. No enlargements were applied; all three images are real WebPs.
Documented benchmarks
The work belongs to a private collection. Its identification, dimensions and provenance are documented by the Sotheby's sales catalog of 2005 and by the Wildenstein catalog raisonné.
This oil on canvas measuring 89 × 116 cm is dated 1918 -1924. It bears a signature stamp attested in a photo-certificate from 1943.
The Parisian merchant André Schoeller sold it in 1943. It then remained in the same family collection until its presentation at Sotheby's in November 2005.
In the last Japanese Bridges, Monet merges the structure of the garden with the painted surface. The pattern remains present but becomes inseparable from impasto and repetitions.

Fidelity here depends on precise relationships between light, touch, depth and color temperature.
