The Marquesa de Pontejos by Francisco Goya

https://www.nga.gov/artworks/92-marquesa-de-pontejos

Trees, grass, and shrubbery, simplified almost to abstraction, set off the fragile, wasp–waisted figure of María Ana de Pontejos y Sandoval, the Marquesa de Pontejos. Splendidly attired, she typifies those ladies of the Spanish aristocracy who affected the „shepherdess“ style of Marie Antoinette, so popular in pre–revolutionary France.

Saint John the Baptist by Florentine 15th Century

https://www.nga.gov/artworks/137-saint-john-baptist

The popular Florentine subject of the young John the Baptist is here presented in a different conception from that of Antonio Rossellino’s delicately beautiful marble bust. The difference is not only in the medium, painted terra cotta, which has retained much original coloring that contributes to an immediate naturalism.

The Bridge at Argenteuil by Claude Monet

https://www.nga.gov/artworks/61374-bridge-argenteuil

From a distance of ten feet or so, Monet’s brushstrokes blend to yield a convincing view of the Seine and the pleasure boats that drew tourists to Argenteuil. Up close, however, each dab of paint is distinct, and the scene dissolves into a mosaic of paint—brilliant, unblended tones of blue, red, green, yellow.
