Darrell Patrick reviewed 1st Art Gallery

I am a lover of European art and I particularly enjoy the work of the French Impressionist such as Claude Monet. I recently had 1st Art Gallery create a reproduction of Monet's "The Poppy Field Near Giverny". It is a wonderful and faithful reproduction of the original. This painting is interesting to me because as you look at the painting it is divided approximately into thirds which is sub consciously appealing to the viewer. Each third is painted differently. The bottom third with the poppies is painted with delicate and more detailed small marks. The village is painted with small swirling marks and is less detailed. The sky is painted in long, loose diagonal lines and is not very detailed at all. I think the painter did a very good job of re-creating this appealing image and I find myself drawn into it. A very appealing and idyllic day in the French countryside. I am very well pleased with this painting. This is my second Monet reproduction and I will be ordering many more Monet reproductions as well as from other prominent Impressionist artists. As is obvious in the photos, I have provided a quality frame job that works well with the painting and really brings out the color and life of the painting. This painting hangs in a prominent area in my master bedroom. I hope this review is helpful. Best Regards.
