"The Path in the Wheat Fields at Pourville is one of my favorite paintings by the artist in the Denver Art Museum collection. We recognize the site of Pourville thanks to the distinctive white cliffs to the left, and yet a simple path dominates the scene. It takes over almost the entire lower half of the painting, accentuating with its gentle curve the intersecting lines of the beach, sea, and ground, resulting in a picture that is simple in details and highly sophisticated in composition. What I find remarkable in this work is Monet’s ability to integrate every element to create a scene of balanced, timeless harmony and convey all the spontaneity of a captured moment in time."

ही वाट दूर जाते...Monet's Path in the Wheat Fields at Pourville, 1882
शांता शेळके :
"ही वाट दूर जाते स्वप्नामधील गावा
माझ्या मनातला का तेथे असेल रावा?
जेथे मिळे धरेला आभाळ वाकलेले
अस्ताचलास जेथे रविबिंब टेकलेले
जेथे खुळया ढगांनी रंगीन साज ल्यावा
घे साउली उन्हाला कवळून बाहुपाशी
लागून ओढ वेडी खग येती कोटरासी
एकेक चांदणीने नभदीप पाजळावा
स्वप्नामधील गावा स्वप्नामधून जावे
स्वप्नातल्या प्रियाला मनमुक्त गीत गावे
स्वप्नातल्या सुखाचा स्वप्नीच वेध घ्यावा"
अशीच एक "वाट" पहा:
