The story

The National Gallery of Art describes how Monet quickly worked to capture the moment. Loose blue grey regions form the sky, short green, blue and brown keys form the grass. Yellow dots suggest buttercups and return to Camille's sleeve; Powerful white paint strokes capture the light on her skirt and coat.
