The oil on canvas Terrace at the Seaside, Sainte-Adresse, in which Monet depicted the carefree atmosphere of the terrace, is a wonderful example of the artist’s early painting style. In this painting, Monet combined a dazzling array of bright, natural colors, completely departing from the sober brown and black shades of traditional landscape paintings.
