Artwork description

Reproduction details

Claude Monet · 1895 · Marmottan 5169 · W1396

Landscape of Norway, blue houses W1396hand painted reproduction

Three buildings emerge from a vast snowfield under yellow, pink and sea green skies. Monet reduces the houses to a few brown, blue and white planes, then lets the slope occupy almost the entire picture. The isolation of the pattern, the very high horizon and the circulation of colors transform a Norwegian farm into a study of light.

Look at the work

Tiny houses held in the middle of a slope of pink and blue snow

The main building is located slightly to the right of the center. Its brown gable and light roof stand out in front of a line of turquoise hills. Two lower constructions extend the group without closing the space.

The foreground is covered with long oblique touches of pale blue, pink and purple. The sky takes on these same colors in thinner bands; a yellow zone near the horizon diffuses late daytime light.

The houses give scale, but the real subject is snow becoming a colored surface.

Composition, touch and light

What Monet builds behind the impression of snapshot

Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.

01

A motif painted during the stay of 1895

Monet joins the Sandvika region in the heart of the Norwegian winter. Before and during the Mount Kolsås series, he observes the farms, the fjord and the villages under very different lights.

02

A depth constructed by temperature

The warm roses advance in the sky and the foreground, while the blue-green ones move the hills away. The darker houses serve as a hinge between these two expanses.

03

Snow never uniformly white

The keys follow the slope and change color depending on the light. Keeping them separate avoids flat ground and restores the very soft relief of the composition.

Reference image

Read this specific version

The single reference image measures 3000 × 2203 px. It shows work 5169 and has been encoded as a real WebP at its native definition, without artificial enlargement.

Composition01

A horizon in the upper quarter

The large part left to the snow produces the silence of the landscape. Going down houses or widening the sky would greatly modify their impression of isolation.

Color02

Lemon yellow, cold pink and turquoise

The light palette combines complementary colors without sharp contrast. The browns of buildings must remain gray so as not to dominate the atmosphere.

Matter03

Long movements that follow the slope

Oblique brushstrokes structure the foreground. Their direction, more than drawn contours, indicates the undulations of the snowy terrain.

Documented benchmarks

Three pieces of information specific to this work

These landmarks concern the painting of the Marmottan Monet museum, inventory 5169 and Wildenstein 1396.

Identification01

Marmottan Monet Museum 5169, W1396

This oil on canvas from 1895 measures 61 × 84 cm. It is kept in Paris under number 5169 and belongs to the group of landscapes brought from Norway.

Provenance02

Gift from Michel Monet in 1966

The painting enters the museum with the legacy of Michel Monet, son of the painter. This ensemble constituted the core of the most important global collection of works by Claude Monet.

Norwegian series03

A distinct view of the red houses

W1396 shows more isolated buildings and a much more colorful sky than the Red Houses at Björnegaard W1393. His inventory and his Wildenstein number avoid confusing these compositions.

Your reproduction

What the painter must preserve

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

  • The exact version of the Marmottan Monet museum, 5169 and Wildenstein 1396
  • The original horizontal ratio of 61 × 84 cm
  • The very high horizon and the small scale of the buildings
  • Roses, yellows and turquoises preserved in clear light
