Artwork description
Claude Monet · Port-Goulphar · 1886 · W1095
Three rock masses emerge from a blue-green sea under an overcast sky. The central reef, seen up close, displays purple and brown sides while the foam forms its base. Signed and dated Claude Monet 86, this oil on canvas measuring 66 × 81.8 cm is kept at the Art Institute of Chicago under number 1964.210 and corresponds to Wildenstein 1095.

Look at the work
The largest rock occupies the center and almost cuts the horizon line. Two more distant formations frame it. Unlike the other two close versions of the pattern, W1095 eliminates the side rocks of the foreground.
The shadows of the stone combine brown, purple, gray and green. Reddish passages appear near the water. The sea remains lighter, with open touches of blue, green and white which sometimes reveal the preparation.
The relative calm of the sea makes the rocks more massive: instead of dissolving them in the storm, Monet studies their facets, colors and anchoring in the water.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.
The main mass dominates the canvas and its edges almost extend out of the available space, giving the pattern a monumental presence.
The overcast sky reduces lighting contrasts but reveals the purples, greens and reds contained in the stone.
The Art Institute's technical study observes numerous mixtures in the fresh layer and rapid execution around a summary placement.
Reference image
The Art Institute of Chicago IIIF file has been converted into a true WebP of 3,000 × 2,401 px. High definition allows you to read the open matter and nuances of the rock.
Its width and height distinguish W1095 from other views near Port-Goulphar.
The small intervals between the keys contribute to surface breathing and should not be filled.
They connect the color of the rock to the water and give weight to the central formation.
Documented benchmarks
The Art Institute of Chicago documents Rocks at Port-Goulphar, Belle-Île, oil on canvas from 1886, 66 × 81.8 cm, signed Claude Monet 86, inventory 1964.210 and catalog Wildenstein 1095.
W1093, W1094 and W1095 take over Port-Goulphar under different conditions; the Chicago version shows overcast weather and tighter framing.
The analysis of the threads brings its fabric closer to two paintings by Étretat kept at the same museum, probably coming from the same scroll.
Lead white, cadmium and chromium yellows, vermilion, red lacquer, emerald green, viridian, cobalt blue and ultramarine were detected.
