The Red Cape, also sometimes known as Madame Monet or The Red Kerchief, [2] is an oil-on-canvas snowscape by French impressionist Claude Monet, from c. 1868-1873. The painting depicts Claude Monet's first wife, Camille, dressed in a red cape, passing outside of a window. [3]
Monet painted the painting while living in Argenteuil. [2] The solitary setting at his home there allowed him to paint in relative peace, as well as spend time with his family. [2] It is Monet's only known snowscape painting that features Camille Monet. [4] Since 1958, it has been in the collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio. [1]
