claude monet paintings - monet paintings

Claude Monet and paintins are generally considered to be the most outstanding figure and art subjects among Impressionists and their works. The term Impressionism derives from claude monet paintings Impression: Sunrise. A title was needed in a hurry for the catalogue of the exhibition in 1874. Claude Monet suggested simply Impression, and the catalogue editor, Renoir's brother Edouard, added an explanatory Sunrise. The artist was not to know that because of criticism which seized upon the first word he had given the entire movement its name.

Claude monet's family lived in LeHavre near the sea in Northern France where he developed his lifelong direction to painting out-of-doors scenes. In the 1870s Monet and Renoir created the broken color technique of classic impressions: realizing an image of light and atmosphere. Monet wanted to make the operation of painting visible. He found delight in the reflections of water, sea breezes, the light of the sun, the pleasures of the countryside, and the value of the present moment. The term "Impressionism" came into existence when a hostile critic had looked at one of his paintings in 1874 entitled "Impression: Sunrise". Monet had adopted Manet's concept of painting and applied it to exterior landscapes. Claude Monet paintings are flooded with sunlight, monet paintings are Impressionistic in its shimmering, luminous colors. In the 1880s, the members of the original Impressionist group began to drift apart and Monet became the only artist of that period who stayed faithful to the Impressionist view of nature. About 1890, he began to paint pictures in series, showing the same subject under various conditions of light and atmosphere. He bought a house at Giverney and began to cultivate a water-lily garden. For the next 40 years he worked on claude money paintings of his water garden. By 1900 he was quite affluent and exhibited regularly.
