THE LEGEND OF ART
The Bridge at Argenteuil, Might be considered a more typical or even a more classic version of developed Impressionism, a work that glisten and vibrates and gives the effect of brilliant, hot sunlight shimmering on the water.

The water itself is rendered in positive color.Nevertheless, There is no uniform pattern of brushstroke to define the surface: The trees are treated as a fluffy and relatively homogenous mass.

The foreground blue of the water and the blue of the sky are painted quiet smoothly and evenly; the boats and the bridge are drawn in with firm, linear, architectural strokes.
