Waterloo Bridge, Hazy Sunshine

Claude Monet captured Waterloo Bridge as sunlight penetrates London's haze in this luminous canvas. The bridge's arches emerge through golden atmospheric light, with the water below reflecting warm tones. This version shows Monet's interest in how fog could both obscure and enhance natural light.

Painted from his Savoy Hotel vantage point, Monet worked on multiple canvases simultaneously, switching between them as conditions changed. The warm palette distinguishes this from his cooler fog studies. Now at the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg.
