The Story of "The Railroad Bridge At Argenteuil"
(after Monet)
When he was living in Paris, Thierry's favorite pastime was to visit
the permanent collection of Impressionism Paintings at the
museum. His
love for Monet was particularly found a the Musee D'Orsay. There,
the
discovery of the techniques to create depth in landscapes, seascapes
and still life was significant. By following Christie's famous
auctions through their brochures and previews, Thierry found of the
rarest Monet paintings, "The
Railroad Bridge At Argenteuil" ("Le
Chemin de Fer à Argenteuil"). Too expensive to buy,
yet so beautiful, it
inspires Thierry, at the age of 38, to create his first painting, "The
Railroad Bridge At Argenteuil" (after Monet). The bridge,
the trees,
the clouds, the reflections in the river watched by the two friends,
are indeed a very interesting subject filled with action and dimension. |
