Wu Zhi-xiong's Collection's "Summer in Vettheuil" captures the essence of Impressionism with vibrant colors and fluid brushstrokes. This oil painting reflects Claude Monet’s and his colleagues' defiance and innovation against the conventional French art forms. The light-hearted hues and casual arrangement of the scene embody the beauty of nature under the summer sun without strict adherence to detailed depiction. More than just a sensitive rendition of changing lights and shadows, this piece sings an ode to a certain attitude towards life, ushering in a refreshing artistic movement.
