Venice Twilight by Claude Monet:
Above you can see the painting of Claude Monet called ’Venice Twilight’.
The only problem is that there are more illustrations of this painting but than with different kind of lights and colours. It was hard to find which the good one was, but I choose for this one because I think this one looks realistic one. But on the front page you can see an other one.
This painting is made by Claude Monet, a French painter. He is born on 14th of November 1840 AD, in Paris, and died on the 5th of December 1926 AD. He was the second child of Claude Monet Adolphe and Louise-Justine Monet. When Claude was about five, the family moves from Paris to the small town of la Havre. Claude Monet spent his childhood in le Havre. He first became known for his caricatures locally. During this time, he met Eugene Boudin, who became his mentor. Eugene Boudine influenced Claude Monet to begin painting outdoors. He also encouraged Claude to try oil paint and pastels instead of charcoal.
Claude Monet made several trips to the Mediterranean between 1883 and 1903. During this visits he painted many landscapes and sea shapes such as ‘Venice Twilight’. He painted ‘Venice Twilight’ in 1908 AD. An other favourite subject to paint for Monet was the landmarks of the Mediterranean.
His paintings in Venice included ‘the Grand Canal Doges Palace’ and ‘San Giorgio Maggiore.

When he saw Venice he knew immediately he had to paint this city.
The paintings he made of Venice are one of the most know paintings of him. You can also see that still now, because there are made a lot of copy prints of it.
He made the painting with oil and pastels. I think he uses both linear-perspective and aerial-perspective. But my opinion is that he the linear-perspective more detailed. He painted ‘Venice Twilight’ from a distance of Venice.
My opinion:I think it’s a beautiful and realistic painting. He painted the water very detailed, you can see waves etc. But the sky less detailed f.e. there is not really an
