The Thames below Westminster - Claude Monet - National Gallery Cushion

This is one of the works produced by Monet when, like Pissarro and Daubigny, he moved to London during the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1). Pissarro worked mainly in south London, while Monet painted the parks of central London and the River Thames. Here he shows the misty atmosphere of the capital on a spring day, with the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Bridge in the background. They are contrasted with the jetty in the foreground casting broken shadows on the river, and the new foliage of the trees on the Embankment to the right. Cisco Cushions are made with a super soft faux suede and machine washable and come complete with the cushion pad. As with all the products that use archival inks to get the brightest, saturated finish possible.
