Woman with a Parasol - Claude Monet

The Promenade, also called Woman with a Parasol, depicts the garden of Claude Monet's second home in Argenteuil. The human figure, which had played a negligible role in his paintings in recent years, takes on renewed importance, with his wife Camille serving as a model. This painting is singular in the preponderant role that the artist gives to the figure in the landscape.
