Morning Haze

The painting Morning Haze, an oil on canvas artwork created by Claude Monet in 1888, is currently held at the National Gallery of Art. The artwork measures 0.925 meters in width and 0.74 meters in height.

The painting depicts a hazy morning scene. The overall palette is very light and dominated by pale blues, greens, and whites, giving the impression of a thick fog. A few trees are faintly visible, their forms obscured by the mist. The tree furthest in the foreground is the most defined, though its details are still obscured by the atmospheric conditions. The ground is rendered in similar pale tones, blending seamlessly with the fog-laden air. The painting evokes a sense of stillness and tranquility, capturing the ephemeral beauty of a foggy morning.
