About this objectGardens, and the radiant sunlight that shines upon them, are a recurring theme through impressionist paintings from the likes of Monet and Pissarro. This was continued by later generations that used this style, hallmarked by loose brushstrokes and a fascination with the impact of light. Hinchcliffe uses more shade than would usually be present in an impressionist painting, furthering the sense of enclosure that the figures feel within this space.
