Which Claude Monet painting is also known as The Stroll?

The story behind the answer

The Claude Monet painting also known as The Stroll is Woman with a Parasol – Madame Monet and Her Son.

The work was painted in 1875 and presents Camille Doncieux and their son Jean outdoors. The alternate title, The Stroll, describes the impression of a brief family walk, while the longer title identifies the figures more precisely.

Monet used a low viewpoint looking upward toward Camille, whose parasol and dress stand against a bright, wind-filled sky. The composition gives the scene a sense of immediacy, as if the viewer has just looked up and noticed the figures.

The painting is sometimes confused with Monet’s 1886 Woman with a Parasol – Facing Left, which features Suzanne Hoschedé. Those two works share a title phrase and a parasol motif, but they depict different people and dates.
