The Atelier at Flowerfield

Oscar-Claude Monetwas a French painter and founder ofImpressionism who is seen as a key precursor toModernism. During his long career, he was the most consistent and prolific practitioner of Impressionism's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions of nature, especially as applied to plein air(outdoor) landscape painting.
Monet's ambition to document the French countryside led to a method of painting the same scene many times to capture the changing of light and the passing of the seasons. The term "Impressionism" is derived from the title of his painting Impressionism, Sunrise (Impression, soleil levant), which was exhibited in 1874 at the First Impressionism Exhibit initiated by Monet.
Among the best-known examples are hisseries of haystacks (1890–1891),paintings of Rouen Cathedral(1892–1894), and thepaintings of water lilies in his garden in Giverny, which occupied him for the last 20 years of his life. Frequently exhibited and successful during his lifetime, Monet's fame and popularity soared in the second half of the 20th century when he became one of the world's most famous painters and a source of inspiration for a burgeoning group of artists.
