LabelIn the autumn of 1870, in the midst of the Franco-Prussian War, Monet and his wife left France for exile in London, where they remained until June 1871. There the artist painted this panorama of a park in the heart of the city. In later years Monet would return to London, painting numerous views of city sights, including the Houses of Parliament.Social Tags [?]green park [x] impressionist [x] landscape 19c [x] london [x] monet [x] [Add Your Own Tags]* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons.
