Details

Claude Monet (1840-1926) was one of the founders and namesake of Impressionism and of all Impressionists the one who most steadfastly adhered to the principles of the movement. Until the last he continued to work purely by visual perception; scientific theories were only used if they had proven valid by trial and error. This is plausibly demonstrated in this book, in which Monet's life and works are chronologically treated. The writer gives a good impression of the painter and also writes in a legible style, without the use of unnecessary jargon. Well illustrated book with many color images and an attractive presentation of known facts.
