The Banks of The Seine in Autumn — Fine Art

The Banks of The Seine in Autumn turns a quiet stretch of river into dabs of green and gold. Bare trees and low banks sit along the water, painted in short strokes. The work sits with Claude Monet and his habit of painting the Seine in different light.

The fine art print uses a matte surface so the autumn greens stay dull and do not shine under a lamp. A dark frame on a pale wall makes the pale water stand out.

In a hallway with one low window, the view catches the afternoon sun from the side. You see the tree trunks across the passage and the water colours hold still.
