1883, Berthe Morisot, On the Banks of the Seine at Bougival -- National Museum (Oslo)
From the museum label: With clear, brisk brushstrokes, Morisot captures a summer's day on the river Seine. She paints a small town with white houses and children in fluttering dresses. Light and colours are reflected as flickering patches. The water surface is rendered in lively dashes. The loose style shows that Morisot is bolder in exploring the possibilities of painting than many of her contemporaries.
