In
this second work for the premiere "Saisons Suites Collection",
depicting Monet's wisteria bridge in summer, Mark King epitomizes
Monet's recurring theme; capturing the luminous enchantment of
a golden, balmy, full-summer's day and magnificently coaxing it
onto canvas.
In this radiant portrayal
of summer, King accentuates the ubiquitous wisteria and the Japanese
footbridge into larger-than-life sumptuousness and splendor, as
befitting icons of Impressionism. Monet himself loved the '...ardeur...of
yellow flowers', and the luxuriousness and discernment of King's
palette has created a brilliant vision of Impressionist integrity.
