Description for Monet
Hardcover. Claude Monet (1840-1926) was the most typical and the most individual Impressionist painter. In their open, merely tenuously representational structure and impressive scale, Monet's water lily paintings - created long before the currents of the contemporary avant-garde - point the way to the developments of the future.
