Weeping Willow is a 1918 oil by Claude Monet, a Impressionism work, held at Musée Marmottan Monet.
This painting is dominated by a large, curved tree with long, drooping branches that stretch down towards the ground. The tree's trunk is a deep brown color, while its branches and leaves are a vibrant green. The background of the painting is a soft, hazy yellow, which gives the impression of sunlight filtering through the trees. The brushstrokes in the painting are loose and expressive, with visible texture that adds to the overall sense of movement and energy. The colors are muted and natural, with a focus on earthy tones that evoke a sense of serenity and calm.
