Houses of Parliament, London

Claude Monet’s ‘Houses of Parliament, London’ is a series of paintings that capture the Palace of Westminster at different times of day, under various lighting conditions and atmospheric effects. Monet created these works between 1900 and 1901, viewing the iconic structure from different vantage points along the River Thames. He was fascinated by the interplay of light, fog, and reflections on the water, which created ever-changing visual impressions. The series is notable for its exploration of color and light, marking a significant contribution to the Impressionist movement.
