Monet Paintings
Claude Monet was the father of a prominent mid-19th century art movement called Impressionism. The term “Impressionism” was coined by the art critic Louis Leroy who published a satiric review of Monet’s first publicly received painting entitled Impression, Sunrise. Impressionist painters placed immortalizing the emotion of a natural scene above trying to capture the realism and details of what they saw.

ARTifacts - Fun facts about Claude Monet
The Most Expensive Monet’s
In the art world there are few names that are as big as that of Claude Monet. As a founder of French Impressionism, as arguably the most steadfast, consistent and prolific practitioner of the Impressionist movement’s philosophy (along with Alfred Sisley) and as one of the most widely recognised names in and out of the art world, Monet’s reputation leaves him near the top of the list in terms of global recognition for an artist. However when it comes to the sale of Monet’s oil paintings at auction, he languished far behind Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Gustav Klimt, Paul Cézanne, Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning, with even work by his Impressionist cohort Pierre-Auguste Renoir ranking much higher up the monetary scale.
Monet And His Wonderful Haystacks
Claude Monet had the knack, ability, technique, vision, knowhow … whatever you want to call it, of being able to look at an object and see ten (or often more) different ways to paint it. Whether it was the Houses of Parliament in London, the Cathedral in the town of Rouen in Normandy, a line of poplar trees near his home and studio, or in this instance a humble haystack in fields near Giverny, Monet understood that changing light and atmospheric conditions could completely alter the nature of a scene.
