Painting by Claude Monet “The impression of the rising sun”
The picture with the original name “Sea” was foreseen for a great future. Despite the clearly defined date, 72 Monet was mistaken, since the work was written in 1873 in Le Havre, where a wonderful view of the port was opened from the window of a small hotel.
In 1874, the painting was being prepared for the exhibition of the Anonymous Society of Artists, and at the very last moment Monet changed the name, which would define the whole direction of painting – “Impression, Sunrise.”
An amazing canvas gives rise to a lot of emotions. Fragmentary examination reveals a certain untidiness – fast technique, small strokes, figures are barely outlined.

All 165 paintings exhibited together with the “Sunrise” from the famous photographer Nadar, were severely criticized. The society, brought up on traditional subjects and canons of painting, was incomprehensible lack of clear lines, mottled color coloring and strange themes of paintings. “Impressive” artists with irony and sarcasm call them the magazine “Shari-vari”, referring to the picture of Monet, which does not upset the younger generation (unless Degas was unhappy). Since then, they call themselves “Impressionists” (with a French impression), proclaiming the freedom of the artist from any postulates and the views of society.
Despite the fact that the exhibition was not successful, a number of paintings, including “Impression” were bought, albeit for little money. Masterpiece Monet was in Ernest Oshad. In 1985, the painting was stolen from the Marmottan Museum in Paris, and only five years later it was found. In 1991, it was again presented to the public.
