The Manneporte near Étretat by Claude Monet in 1886. local color is the natural color of an object unmodified by adding light and shadow or any other distortion.The artist walked along the beach, followed by children carrying five or six canvases representing the same subject at different times of the day and with different effects. He took them up and put them aside by turns according to changes in the sky and shadows.
