The House in Giverny  1912

by Frederick Carl Frieseke

Although not using the more brilliant colours of his later paintings, Frieseke captured with broken brushstrokes the resonant lustre of the sun-drenched scene. "If you are looking", he stated, "at a mass of flowers in the sunlight, out of doors, [and] you see a sparkle of spots of different colors; then paint them in that way."
