Impressions Along the Seine

In the summer of 1874, Édouard Manet, Claude Monet, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir gathered along the Seine at Argenteuil, capturing the river’s serene beauty and the leisure of modern life. Manet’s Argenteuil (1874) portrays a contemplative couple by the water, blending his realist roots with Impressionist light. Monet’s Regatta at Argenteuil (1872) depicts sailboats gliding under a luminous sky, reflecting his fascination with light and movement. Renoir’s The Seine at Argenteuil (1874) offers a gentle view of the riverbank, emphasizing the harmony between nature and human activity. Together, these works invite viewers to experience the tranquil rhythms of river life through the eyes of three masters.
