Claude Monet: Impressions of Light
Organized in partnership with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (MFA), this landmark exhibition features works that illustrate the height of Claude Monet's engagement with color and light. The leader among the circle of 19th-century French painters known as the Impressionists, Monet made it his life's mission to capture the essence of nature and light with nothing more than paint and canvas.
Showcasing 20 works by the founder of French Impressionist painting, "Claude Monet: Impressions of Light" also presents eight other canvases by Monet's predecessors and contemporaries, including Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Camille Pissarro, and Eugene Louis Boudin. It was from Monet's collaboration with these painters, along with his solitary explorations of the French countryside, that his own signature style eventually emerged.
All of these works are drawn from the collection of the MFA, which holds one of the largest groups of paintings by Claude Monet outside of Paris. Spanning four decades of Monet's career, the exhibition features many of the artists most celebrated and recognizable paintings, including Grainstack (Sunset), 1891and Camille Monet and a Child in the Artist's Garden in Argenteui.l, 1875.
