People Paintings Nautical paintings detail marine art and capture the spirit of maritime life both past and present. Claude Monet painted The Studio Boat in 1874. Shortly after Monet moved to Argenteuil, he bought a boat and converted it into a floating studio. Building Paintings He kept it moored near his home and used it to get a vista of the riverbank from the water. As seen here, he also painted it from the bank to study the effects of shadow and reflection at a distance.
