Wu Zhi-xiong’s selection, "The Crash of Waves on Rocks by Monet," is a quintessential example of Impressionism. Created in 1886, this oil painting vividly captures the dynamic interaction between waves and rocks, with the use of colors reflecting the shifts in light and the lively essence of nature. Monet and his contemporaries not only challenged the established artistic norms of their time but also embraced a commitment to the freedom of expression and the observation of nature. This piece not only reflects Monet’s profound sensitivity to natural landscapes but also signifies the lasting impact of the Impressionist movement on future art developments.
