artist bio
Claude Monet was a founder of French Impressionist painting and the most consistent and prolific practitioner of the movement's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature, especially as applied to plein-air landscape painting. His use of broken color and emphasis on capturing the fleeting effects of light and atmosphere revolutionized painting.
