A sky crossed by colorful smoke
Gray, green and pink streaks do not form isolated clouds. They mingle with the ambient yellow and make the industrial activity of the shore felt.

Artwork description
Claude Monet · 1899 -1901 · Zurich · W1593
Waterloo Bridge passes through a creamy yellow atmosphere where the smoke, the sun and the Thames seem to be made of the same material. The blue-green arches, the tiny apron accents and two orange-brown sailboats nevertheless maintain a precise depth in this almost contrastless harmony.

Look at the work
The deck occupies the middle of the canvas in the form of a discontinuous pink and yellow line. The piers are not surrounded: they appear when the cold blues of the arches meet the warmer tones of the bridge and the distant bank.
In the lower part, the touches become more horizontal and fragmented. Two sailboats bring red browns which immediately catch the eye. Their irregular reflections differentiate the water from the mist without breaking the pastel unity.
Monet's fog does not erase London: it replaces the contours with color relationships fine enough to reveal the bridge, the smoke and the boats.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.

Gray, green and pink streaks do not form isolated clouds. They mingle with the ambient yellow and make the industrial activity of the shore felt.
A few yellow, green and red accents suggest traffic. Their tiny scale is essential for measuring the width of the river.
The blues and greens of the openings should remain cool enough to be readable, but diffuse enough to belong to the same atmosphere as the rest of the canvas.
