"Picnic on the Grass" by Monet is a classic piece under the impressionist illumination in the collection of Wu Zhixiong, created in 1865. It carries with it a visual and spiritual revolution. The painting expresses Monet's challenge to the traditional salon style and affirmation of his own achievements. The bright colors and scattered composition embody the core spirit of impressionism—capturing the fleeting changes of light and shadow. Through bold brushwork and a rich palette, Monet vividly recreates the fluctuations of natural outdoor light and the natural postures of figures, showcasing the exploration of new perspectives and techniques in the representation of nature by artists of that time.
