Hello,
For this post I’m writing the review of my favourite painting in the world.
I really like some paintings and I admire some because they tell me something, they have a meaning that I interpret by myself. I love impressionism paintings, especially Claude Monet’s paintings, so yes my favourite painting is one of the Monet’s paintings: “Family life at Argenteuil” (Les Coquelicots à Argenteuil, in French).

| Family life at Argenteuil |
Why does this painting is my favourite in the world?, I cannot tell you a concrete answer, but I can tell you that when I see this painting I feel happy. It is just that this painting tells me: “Life is outside, go and enjoy it.” I mean, the red color of the flowers makes me feel positive, the green of the trees and the grass is so fresh that it cheers me up. The sky looks clear and pure like saying life is sweet and infinite. Finally the little girl that is picking up the red flowers accompanied by her mother, looking so freely, taking a walk by the field, they are just simply enjoying life.
I really love impressionism pictures, the way they are painted by spots or brushstrokes make them so colorful and cheerful. But definitely “Family life at Argenteuil” is my favourite painting because the message that it transmits to me makes me feel lively.

I used to have a print of this painting up in my house when I was a child...
