Monet

TASCHEN's 25th anniversary - Special edition!

Claude Monet (1840–1926) was both the most typical and the most individual painter associated with the Impressionist movement. His long life and extraordinary work were dedicated to a pictorial exploration of the sensations which reality, and in particular landscape, offer the human eye.

Monet`s poplars, grain stacks, Rouen Cathedral, and waterlily paintings — among the most beloved works of the Impressionist period — were created long before the currents of the contemporary avant-garde and had an inestimable influence on the development of modern art. This book traces the life`s work of one of art history`s most beloved painters.

She received her doctorate in 1983 with a thesis on Claude Monet’s water lily paintings and was academic assistant at the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen until 1988.
