Capri  1890

Capri was probably inspired by Monet's paintings of the cliffs at Varengeville, Pourville, and Entretat and of the rocks at Belle-Île of the early 1880s. In these compositions Monet wrestled with the same pictorial problem as that which engrossed Robinson here: the tension between surface design and spatial illusion.
