CLAUDE MONET

« L'allée centrale du Clos Normand » par Fondation Monet

Claude Monet lived for forty-three years, from 1883 to 1926, in his house in Giverny.
With a passion for gardening as well as for colours, he conceived both his flower garden and water garden as true works of art. Walking through his house and gardens, visitors can still feel the atmosphere which reigned at the home of the Master of Impressionism and marvel at the floral compositions and nymphéas, (water lilies), his greatest sources of inspiration.

THE IMPRESSIONISM MUSEUM

The Impressionism Museum, situated in Giverny, is dedicated to the Impressionist movement, but also offers an exploration of this aesthetic movement beyond the circle of painters generally recognized as Impressionists, its precursors, as well as its followers, from the end of the 19th century to today.
Each year, the museum holds two or three major exhibitions.
