Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926) ranks among the greatest painters in the history of Western art. He was the most influential of the Impressionists, a group of painters who strove to capture the endless variations of light and atmosphere that occur over the course of a day in a given location. His career spanned a revolution that was predicated on an intensification of realism and eventually led the way to abstraction. This book of postcards includes 30 of Monet’s best-loved works, including coastscapes, landscapes, city scenes, still lifes—including his unparalleled paintings of flower-filled meadows and the exquisite gardens and water lily pond at Giverny.
This handy postcard collection contains 30 color reproductions of Monet paintings from an array of museums around the globe. You can mail the postcards or frame them for your own collection. The postcard book contains informative introductory text and is perforated for easy removal.
