Claude Monet
Argenteuil Basin with a Single Sailboat
From $100
This painting is bright blues, whites and greens in quick strokes, and a cheap copy dulls the water. Our Claude Monet Bridge at Argenteuil print was graded beside the museum’s own file so the water stays bright and broken.
Canvas, framed or paper
Stretched canvas. Printed on cotton canvas and stretched taut over a frame. The edges are mirror-wrapped, so the picture continues around the sides and none of it is lost to the fold.
Framed canvas. The same canvas, set in a black, white, natural wood or dark wood frame 0.83 in deep. The frame gives the work a finished edge and a little more presence on the wall.
Framed print. Printed on fine art matte paper and framed in solid pine, behind shatterproof plexiglass, in black, white, natural wood or dark wood. It arrives ready to hang. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame.
Fine art print. Printed on 310gsm fine art matte paper, for framing your own way. It travels rolled and protected. From 18x24 inch.
Sizes
16x12 inch, 20x16 inch, 24x18 inch, 30x24 inch. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame, so the visible painting is a little smaller.
On your wall
Its wide shape suits a living room, a bedroom or a coastal room. The blues and whites look fresh with white, navy and natural oak, and a white or natural frame suits it.
About the painting
The Bridge at Argenteuil by Claude Monet
Argenteuil
Argenteuil is a town on the Seine just outside Paris. In 1874 Claude Monet signed a lease on a new house there, and painted the river again and again.
1874
That spring he and his friends showed their work on their own, and a critic’s joke gave them a name: the Impressionists. Here sailboats rest by the bridge, the water broken into quick strokes of colour.
Washington
It belonged to the jeweller Henri Vever, then to the family of the vicomte de Curel for more than sixty years, and was given to the National Gallery of Art by Paul Mellon in 1983.
Read the story
1874 was the year a name was born.
That spring Claude Monet and his friends held their own exhibition in Paris, and a critic's joke about one of Monet's paintings gave them their name: the Impressionists.
That same year Monet signed a lease on a new house in Argenteuil, a town on the Seine just outside Paris, and he painted the river there again and again.
Here sailboats rest beside the bridge on a bright summer day. The water is broken into quick strokes of blue, white and green, so it seems to move as you look.
The painting belonged to the jeweller Henri Vever, and then to the family of the Vicomte de Curel for more than sixty years.
In 1961 it was bought for Paul Mellon, who gave it to the National Gallery of Art in 1983.
Look at the sails, and then at their reflections breaking up in the water.

Questions
Is this the original painting?
No. The original hangs in a museum. What you receive is a fine art reproduction, remastered from the original and printed for you, with every mark where the artist left it.
Will the colour look flat?
This is where most reproductions disappoint, and it is where we spend the most time. Each work is graded side by side with the original: faithful to the artist’s colours, with the depth and warmth brought back, so it moves you on the wall the way it was meant to. Canvas reads a touch softer than a backlit screen, and every screen shows colour a little differently.
Will the edges be cropped?
Each size is a standard frame size, so we fit the painting by trimming a little from its edges. We never stretch or squash it, and we check every size by eye so no face, figure or signature is cut. On canvas the edges are mirror-wrapped, which keeps the whole picture on the front.
Which size is right for my wall?
Aim for about two-thirds the width of the furniture beneath it. Over a sofa or a sideboard, one of the two largest sizes will hold the wall. The size guide lists every size in inches and centimetres, with the kind of wall each one suits.
How long does it take?
Your piece is printed in 1–3 business days, then spends 5–12 business days in transit, tracked all the way. Delivery is free anywhere in the US. We are unable to deliver to PO boxes.
What if it arrives damaged?
Send us a photograph and we will remake it and send it again. There is nothing to return.
Can I return it?
Yes, within 30 days of delivery. Our returns policy has the details.
