Princess Eugenie Instagram – Introducing the first in my new series showcasing my love of art 🎨
As some of you may know, I am a huge lover of art & a director at @hauserwirth – throughout 2025 I hope to share more of that part of my world with you.
Starting with Monet and London: views of the Thames at the @courtauld Gallery ✨
Monet was fascinated by the light and smog of London as it became an industrial city at the turn of the 20th century.
He visited the city 3 times to paint some of his most remarkable impressionist paintings, Charing Cross Bridge, Waterloo Bridge and the Houses of Parliament.
Fun fact: he stayed at the @thesavoylondon and could see both bridges from his window.
I couldn’t get over the way he captured light on the water. The seriality of the work is almost like he’s taking photographs just like how we would in 2024 but his being in 1899. ✨
