 Woman with a Parasol - Madame Monet and Her Son 1875 Oil on canvas - The National Gallery of Art, Washington DC Today's artist is French Painter Claude Monet 1840-1926 specifically the painting Woman with a Parasol - Madame Monet and Her Son. I picked this piece today simply because it's sunny this morning and it helps.
from theartstory.com "Quite uniquely, Monet paints into the light letting the model's features fade into the shadow.
