The Red Cape

The Red Cape, also sometimes known as Madame Monet or The Red Kerchief, is an oil-on-canvas snowscape by French impressionist Claude Monet. The painting depicts Claude Monet's wife, Camille, passing outside of a window dressed in a red cape. Monet painted the painting while living in Argenteuil. The solitary setting at his home there allowed him to paint in relative peace, as well as spend time with his family. It is Monet's only known snowscape painting that features Camille Monet, and is exhibited in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, Ohio.
