La Grenouillère (Monet)

Landscapes and Still Lifes

La Grenouillere is an 1869 oil painting by the French Impressionist Claude Monet, showing the small island known as Flowerpot Island and the walkway leading to La Grenouillere, a floating bathing and boating establishment on the Seine at Croissy-sur-Seine. Monet painted the same riverside resort side by side with Pierre-Auguste Renoir, who made his own version of the scene at the same time. The painting was given to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York by Louisine Havemeyer in 1929 and remains in its collection.
