Armchair Art Tour: Monet at Giverny - The Water Lilies and More

For Oscar Claude Monet (1840-1926), his last thirty-six years upheld his reputation, despite cataract surgeries and the loss of loved ones. During this period, he painted more abstractly, often creating series of pictures focused on the same subject, reducing details as he dramatically rendered light and atmosphere into a textured surface of harmonies and vivid contrasting colors. Included in the talk are works of art from local museums, such as the Brooklyn Museum; the Metropolitan Museum of Art; the Museum of Modern Art, in New York; the Philadelphia Museum of Art; and the Princeton Museum of Art.
