Landscape on the Ile Saint-Martin Claude Monet Date: 1881 Style: Impressionism Genre: landscape Paul G. Allen Family Collection
“My studio! I have never had a studio, and can’t understand how one can shut oneself up in a room. To draw, yes; to paint, no.” He subsequently responded: “This is ‘my studio!’” with a sweeping gesture toward the Seine, the hills and Vetheuil.[1] All of this occurred several months before Monet painted En Paysage dans I’ile Saint-Martin, one of the last works he created in Vetheuil, a small village 40 miles west of Paris where he lived with his wife and two children, and the family of Ernest Hoschedé, a patron of Monet’s.
