At Cap d'Antibes, Mistral Wind Claude Monet Date: 1888 Style: Impressionism Genre: landscape DIMENSIONS 66.0 x 81.3 cm (26 x 32 in.)
As Monet grew older, his paintings became simpler. He began to focus on a single, isolated motif, the better to record the changes in color and light wrought on it by different times of day and fluctuations in weather. “Cap d’Antibes, Mistral” is one of three paintings of these very same trees that Monet made during his four-month sojourn in Antibes, from January through May 1888. 1890, sold by the artist to Durand-Ruel, Paris [see note 1]. 1892, J. Eastman Chase Gallery, Boston. By 1903, acquired by Lilla Cabot Perry (b. 1848 - d. 1933) for her brother, Arthur Tracy Cabot (1852 - d. 1912), Boston [see note 2]; by inheritance to his widow, Susan Shattuck Cabot; 1942, bequest of Arthur Tracy Cabot to the MFA. (Accession Date: October 12, 1942)
