{"product_id":"burgo-marina-at-bordighera-claude-monet","title":"Burgo Marina at Bordighera - Claude Monet","description":"\u003cp\u003eA sun-drenched coastal view of Bordighera, Italy, captured by Claude Monet in 1884 with his characteristic focus on light and colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClaude Monet painted this view of the Italian coastal town of Bordighera during his travels in 1884. The composition captures the Mediterranean light, which differed significantly from the atmospheric conditions he encountered in Northern France. Monet was particularly struck by the intensity of the sun and the specific quality of the southern light, which he attempted to translate through a palette of warm ochres, oranges, and cool blues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe foreground is dominated by a dense, textured mass of foliage, rendered with rapid, broken brushstrokes that suggest the shimmering quality of light on leaves. This foreground acts as a screen, drawing the eye toward the cluster of buildings in the middle ground. The architecture, with its terracotta roofs and sun-bleached walls, sits in direct contrast to the deep, saturated blue of the sea that occupies the upper portion of the canvas. The horizon line is high, compressing the space and emphasising the horizontal expanse of the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMonet's technique here relies on the juxtaposition of complementary colours. The orange tones of the town and the golden sky are balanced against the varied blues and greens of the sea. Rather than using smooth transitions, he applied paint in distinct, visible marks, a hallmark of his approach to capturing the fleeting nature of a specific moment. The figures walking along the path provide a sense of scale, grounding the scene in human activity while remaining secondary to the primary focus on light and colour. This work reflects his ongoing investigation into how light alters the perception of form, a pursuit that occupied him throughout his career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/la-pointe-du-lou-gaou-armand-guillaumin\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eLa Pointe du Lou Gaou by Armand Guillaumin\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/the-bay-of-naples-auguste-renoir\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Bay of Naples - Auguste Renoir by Pierre-Auguste Renoir\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/collections\/claude-monet\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eClaude Monet prints →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Claude Monet","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59517200171343,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59517200204111,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59517200236879,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59517200269647,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59517200302415,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59517200335183,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59517200367951,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59517200400719,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59517200433487,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59517200466255,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59517200499023,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59517200531791,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Burgo-Marina-at-Bordighera_Poster_CompositorV1_1794710112505.jpg?v=1794710139","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/fr\/products\/burgo-marina-at-bordighera-claude-monet","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
