Claude Monet The invention of color (from the book “Monet” by Ivon Taillandier, Crown Publ. Inc. New York, 1982)
The wind has dropped. The little boats cruising near Monet’s floating studio come to a stop and the reflection of their sails is just perceptible in the rise and fall of the water. The man on the bank of the Seine erects the wooden contraption that he had just left in the grass. There is movement in the boat; Monet rises his right arm, and there follow in quick succession one—two—three—four—forty—one hundred strokes of the brush. Very quickly his white canvas is covered with light shades of color. Monet accomplishes in a few minutes what others would have done in several days or even weeks. |

Claude Monet really loved to paint water and could be often seen in his “floating studio” - a boat, which he himself described as a barque. He travelled with his studio along the Seine and painted the meadows and the river. The garden paintings at Giverny, Argenteuil, and the Water-Lilly ponds come from the later years of Monet. Most of these paintings are spread at museums and in private collections around the world. Musée Marmottan in Paris presents a very beautiful thematically organized exhibition. |
