Charing-Cross Bridge in London is a 1902 oil by Claude Monet, a Impressionism work, held at National Museum of Western Art.
This painting depicts a foggy scene of Charing-Cross Bridge in London. The bridge's structure is barely visible, with its edges blurred by the fog. In the foreground, the water's surface is calm, reflecting the soft colors of the sky. The dominant colors are shades of blue and gray, with touches of yellow and pink. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, with visible texture adding depth to the painting. The overall effect is one of serenity and tranquility, inviting the viewer to step into the peaceful atmosphere.
