Nel 1884, Claude Monet viaggiò a Bordighera, una città in Riviera, vicino alla Francia. È stata una visita di lavoro che si è trasformata in tre tre mesi. Lo scopo di questa visita era studiare il miglior possibile per catturare i colori brillanti della luce mediterranea sulla tela. Monet stesso ha detto che si trattava di una lotta con il sole . Nelle sue lettere si è lamentato della vegetazione lussureggiante, che gli ha impedito di trovare un motivo adatto. In questa composizione dipinta dalla sala di osservazione sulla collina, c'è un mare appena visibile con scogliere rocciose attraverso il pino intrecciato.

Claude Oscar Monet (1840-1926). A native Parisian, who thoroughly developed the idea of Impressionism. Monet almost scientifically studied the effect of light on different objects. He devoted himself to so called transitory states, which quickly led him to work with colour and light, his paintings acting on the viewer from the first impression. His use of open-air painting and objects which were special only because of light opened the way for the beginnings of modern painting. Monet’s Impression, Sunrise (1874) not only gave the name to the whole art movement, but secured Monet a place among the best painters of all times. At one time, he resided in London and created his famous study Houses of Parliament (Monet wondered, How could the English painters paint Parliament when it cannot be seen for the fog?). In the Giverny, which became his favourite retreat after the death of his wife, he painted motifs from his garden and the popular series Water Lilies - the world of the water was as poetic and mysterious as a primordial paradise.
