"Charing Cross Bridge" – Claude Monet (circa 1899-1901)

🌟 Introduction – Immersion in the History of the Artwork

Between 1899 and 1901, Claude Monet stayed in London and painted from the terrace of the Savoy Hotel, fascinated by the atmospheric variations of the Thames. In "Charing Cross Bridge", he captures a spectral bridge barely emerging from a pearly mist, bathed in an impalpable light. This oil painting embodies the pinnacle of his exploration of the invisible and the fleeting.

🎙️ Striking Anecdote: Monet claimed that London inspired him with "a new palette." In a letter to Geffroy, he confided: "The mist turns everything into a dream..." This painting is a hymn to that elusive beauty, to the filtered light of the London morning or twilight.

With this work, Monet pushes the boundaries of figuration to approach atmospheric abstraction, long before his time.

🧠 Artistic Expertise – Analysis of the Original Work

In "Charing Cross Bridge", impressionist painting becomes pure evocation. The brushstroke is blurred, the contours melted, the colors diaphanous, to render the immateriality of the landscape through the fog.

🎨 Color palette: lavender blues, pearl violets, pale yellows, touches of emerald green and lilac pink structure the work. The bridge is nothing but a blue vibration, the sky a milky sheet. The water, shimmering and blurred, becomes light itself.

The composition rests on the horizontality of the bridge and the vertical emergence of a Gothic building, probably Westminster, barely suggested in the distance. It is a painting of silence and evanescence, where the gaze slides without catching, like in a misty dream.
