What was Monet’s objective when painting the Antibes series?
Monet sought to capture the intense, crystalline light of the South of France, which differed significantly from the softer light of Normandy. He focused on how the Mistral wind altered the appearance of color and atmosphere.
Why is the Mistral wind significant in this specific composition?
The Mistral wind adds a sense of movement and 'air' to the piece. Monet used agitated, directional brushwork to show the wind's effect on the trees and water, capturing a dynamic, sensory experience of the Riviera.
