This landscape painting is part of the Impressionism movement, a style known for its loose brushwork, vibrant colors, and emphasis on the effects of light. The genre of the painting is landscape, and it depicts the scenic view of Bordighera, an Italian town located on the Mediterranean coast.

“View Of Bordighera” illustrates Monet’s fascination with nature and his skill in capturing the essence of a scene through his impressionistic technique. The canvas is alive with lush foliage, with broad, expressive strokes of greens, blues, and specks of various colors to suggest flowers, buildings, and the glimmering sea in the distance. Monet’s use of light and color suggests the warmth and vibrancy of the Italian Riviera. The painting does not dwell on the fine details, preferring instead to convey the overall mood and atmosphere of Bordighera through its rich textures and sweeping brushwork.
