" Palm Trees At Bordighera" by Claude Monet is a very famous painting representing palm trees. Monet first visited Italy’s southern coast with Renoir in December 1883. Shortly thereafter, he returned alone to paint, writing his dealer that working "à deux" was constraining. This scene and The Valley of the Nervia (30.95.251) reflect Monet’s excitement at the new motifs offered by the region’s palm trees and mountains. For this view, he ventured from his hotel in Bordighera and looked across the Bay of Ventimiglia toward the Alps on the French border. The dazzling colours challenged him to "dare to use all the tones of pink and blue," although what he truly needed was a "palette of diamonds and jewels." |

Claude Monet (1840 – 1926), the founder of Impressionism, was one of the most influential landscape painters in the history of art.Born in Paris, eliminating black and gray from his palette, he represented natural color like a prism, breaking it down into its individual componentsMonet brought the study of the transient effects of natural light to its most refined expression, ultimately becoming a forerunner of 20th century modernism.
