Traditional Claude Monet Wall Art

With the first public viewing of a single painting "Impression, Sunrise" in 1874, Claude Oscar Monet, (14 November 1840 – 5 December 1926) established the entire art genre of the Impressionist Movement. Opposed to the hitherto applied methods of studio painting, Monet, (and the group which saw him as its intellectual leader) sought their themes outside, into the field, painting directly from nature, and developed a brilliant style of painting in natural light. Resisting all obstacles, Monet went on to develop the method further, exploring it to the limits. He created several series' of paintings, in which, using a technique of placing spots of unmixed colour next to each other on the canvas, he painted the exact same subject (a cathedral, haystacks, lilly-pond etc.) many times over, from different angles to capture the effects of sunlight at every time of day and throughout every season.
