Claude Monet

Oscar-Claude Monet (1840-1926) was a French painter and founder of impressionist painting, who is seen as a key precursor to modernism, especially in his attempts to paint nature as he perceived it. Born in Paris, Monet moved to Le Havre at the age of five, where his father was a successful grocer that later turned to shipping. He was the second son of Claude Adolphe Monet and Louise Justine Aubrée Monet, both of them second-generation Parisians.

Monet was a masterful painter of light and atmosphere, and his observations of nature viewed at various times of the day were captured in sequences of paintings. He was an inspiration and a leader among the Impressionists, crucial in attracting other artists like Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, Édouard Manet, and Camille Pissarro to work together in and around Paris. Monet was also important in establishing the exhibition society that would showcase the group's work.

Some of his most famous works include "Impression, Sunrise," "The Beach at Sainte-Adresse," and "Water Lilies". These paintings are celebrated for their technical skill and the artist's ability to capture the essence of his subjects and the emotions evoked by the scenes. Monet often painted in series, so there are multiple paintings relating to the same subject. Some of these include Woman in the garden, Autumn on the Seine at Argenteuil, Camille Monet and a Child, Haystacks at Giverny, Impression Sunrise, Poplars at Giverny, Waterloo Bridge, London, Water Lilies, Evening Effect, Irises in Monet’s Garden, Houses of Parliament, Three Trees in Grey Eeather, San Giorgio Maggiore At Dusk, Poppies, Woman With Parasol, The Water Pond and many more. Monet's work has had a significant influence on the development of modern art, and his legacy continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide.
