Claude Monet



Claude Monet was one of the founding fathers of the Impressionist movement in France. He was born in Paris and his date of birth was 1840. Monet started doing caricatures as a little boy and a local shop keeper, Eugene Boudin saw the talent of the young boy and provided his very first painting lessons. Claude Monet was drafted to go to Northern Africa for 2 years and upon his return he took painting lessons at Gleyre’s studio in Paris and met Auguste Renoir, Sisley, Bazille and other well known artists. Monet eventually turned from the traditional painting style of the times, which was not well taken by the art community. In 1883 Monet moved to Giverny and rented a house where he stayed until his death in 1926.
