Description
In Croquis d’enfants and Tête d’Adolescent, the artist employs an instinctive technique that prefigures his later landscape explorations. Monet juxtaposes expressive, detailed faces with softly focused bodies and indistinct backgrounds. This contrast, accentuated by white chalk highlights in Tête d’Adolescent, reveals an early fascination with the interplay of light and shadow.
