Features: Monet is the most representative painter of Impressionism. Not only was he long-lived (reaching the age of 86), but he also produced an astonishing number of works. He often sketched the same subject at different times, capturing varying light and atmospheres, demonstrating his mastery of light and color's brilliance and vividness. These interwoven compositions create a magnificent symphony of light and color, achieving the pinnacle of Impressionist art. Series such as Haystacks, The Houses of Parliament, and Poplars are widely renowned. This book features over 300 of Monet's most representative works, starting with his early satirical paintings and narrating his life and art in a vivid, illustrated manner. It particularly introduces the Musée Marmottan and Monet's watery world in his garden at Giverny, including his immortal series such as Water Lilies and The Japanese Bridge. The systematic and comprehensive introduction allows readers to fully appreciate the infinite charm of Monet's works.
