Public Domain &#8211; Wikimedia Commons<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The first time I saw a piece by the renowned painter Claude Monet, it was at the Mus\u00e9e d&#8217;Orsay. There, I was blown away by La Pie (The Magpie), a snow-covered landscape piece from the 1860s. When you step back and look the attention to detail is astounding. What struck me was his ability to masterfully portray the shadow from a gate using oil on a canvas.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s just the tip of the iceberg with him. Monet is perhaps best known for his impact on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/impressionism-in-paris-the-painters-and-the-city\/\">the Impressionism art movement<\/a> and his famed gardens in Giverny, but there are many fascinating aspects of his life.<\/p>\n<h4>1. Monet was raised on the Normandy Coast<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>But he\u2019s Â鶹APP-born! He was born to Adolphe and Louise-Justine Monet on Rue Lafitte in the Ninth Arrondissement on Nov. 14, 1840.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp; <\/span>He was born two days after fellow painter and lifelong friend, Auguste Rodin.<\/p>\n<p>Monet\u2019s father, a merchant, moved the family to a seaside area near Le Havre when Monet was 5 years old \u2014 a move which would shape his artistic life to come. Ten years later he was creating caricatures and would also make detailed sketches of the many ships in the area.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It seems the artist took more after the creative side of his mother, who was a singer. His aunt, too, was an amateur painter.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;If you want to get in touch with Monet&#8217;s Norman roots, I&#8217;d recommend a&nbsp;trip to Rouen! It&#8217;s about an hour and a&nbsp;half bus ride from Â鶹APP, and Ouibus tickets go for as low as 5 euros! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">There, you&nbsp;can check out the Rouen Cathedral, a monument that so impressed the painter he set up a studio nearby,&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>2. The painter wasn\u2019t a fan of traditional art schools<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>In 1859, he returned to Â鶹APP to study painting at The Swiss Academy (Atelier Suisse), a more liberal school, because places like the School of Fine Arts didn\u2019t match his unorthodox views on art. Afterward, he was at the Charles Gleyre&#8217;s Studio between 1862 and 1864. His first teacher, however was the painter Jacques-Francois Ochard. Orchard himself had been taught by the noted neoclassical artist Jacques-Louis David.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>3. Monet\u2019s mentor encouraged him to paint his now iconic landscapes<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>In 1858, a year before Monet went off to art school, he met Eug\u00e8ne Boudin. Monet\u2019s charcoal caricatures had been making a buzz, and Boudin noticed him.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp; <\/span>Boudin became his mentor, and encouraged him to paint \u201cen plain air.\u201d The rest is history.<\/p>\n<p>In Monet\u2019s early years in Â鶹APP, he\u2019d often write letters to Boudin talking about his experiences in the artistic hub. French author Gustave Cahen published the letters. In fact, Monet is said to have told his biographer, French journalist Gustave Geffroy, of Boudin\u2019s major role in his life. Monet told Gefrroy, &#8220;I consider Eugene Boudin as my master. [&#8230;] I said and I repeat: I owe everything to Boudin and I am grateful to him for my success. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>One of Monet&#8217;s most famous landscape pieces, as you all know, is his series of water lilies called&nbsp; <em>Les Nymph\u00e9as.&nbsp;<\/em>If I were you, I&#8217;d head down to The Mus\u00e9e de l\u2019Orangerie to check out the eight panels from his collection that they have on display.<\/p>\n<p>The museum is right by the Jardin des Tuileries and easily accessible by metro lines 1, 8, and 12 at the Concorde Station.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13256\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet2.jpg\" alt=\"Monet painting\" width=\"640\" height=\"435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet2-300x204.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><em>The Magpie by Claude Monet.

Public Domain &#8211; Wikimedia Commons<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Monet was drafted to serve France in the Franco-Algerian war in 1861 at 20 years old. The painter came from a prosperous family that had the financial means to buy his discharge, but his family was not satisfied with his rejection of traditional art forms.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, Monet served two years of a seven-year assignment in Algers. But, even amid the war, the artist was surrounded by natural light, sunshine and vegetation, according to his biographer Geffroy. Monet, who had fallen ill in the climate, was able to end his service early with the help of his family.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>5. Monet\u2019s painting style was not always accepted<\/h4>\n<p>Along with his parents, France\u2019s traditional art organisations were no fans of the Monet\u2019s style. His style focused on perception, capturing open-air scenes by using rapid brush strokes. In 1867, the Salon refused his piece, Femmes au Jardin.<\/p>\n<p>The jury saw his style as \u201ccasual\u201d and \u201cincomplete.&#8221; One member of the jury went as far as to say, \u201cToo many young people only think of continuing in this abominable direction, it is high time to protect them and save art!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Of course, now the work is displayed at Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay in Â鶹APP and was praised by Emile Zola for it\u2019s masterful portrayal of shadow and sunlight .<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">Mus\u00e9e d&#8217;Orsay is one of my favorite museums in Â鶹APP. If you haven&#8217;t already, I&nbsp;highly recommend you take a trip there. You can get to it by taking the metro line&nbsp;12 to the Solf\u00e9rino station. Or, take the RER to the&nbsp;aptly named Mus\u00e9e d&#8217;Orsay station. There&#8217;s a big rhino statue out front.

The Impressionism Art movement was named after a Monet painting<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Monet didn\u2019t invent Impressionism &#8211; he wasn\u2019t the first painter to use this style. But he is perhaps by far the most famous \u201cImpressionist\u201d out there. That\u2019s because the very term Impressionism came from one of his own paintings.<\/p>\n<p>It was 1874, and the artist had depicted a scene from a port in Le Havre that he would show at an exhibition. The name of the work was<em> Impression, Sunrise<\/em>.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp; <\/span>Monet and his contemporaries \u2014 like-minded artists like Degas, Bazille and Pissarro \u2014 were often rejected by the Salon.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13257\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet3.jpg\" alt=\"Monet painting\" width=\"617\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet3.jpg 617w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet3-300x233.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 617px) 100vw, 617px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Impression, Sunrise by Claude Monet.

The museum boasts the largest Monet collection in the world!

Argenteuil is where Monet\u2019s art prospered<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Monet lived in Argenteuil from 1871 to 1878, not the first artist to escape the busy, bustling life of Â鶹APP to admire the quiet natural beauty of the the riverside town just northwest.<\/p>\n<p>While Argenteuil drew many boat racing enthusiasts to the city, Monet was drawn to the natural beauty \u2014 the heart of his style was working from nature. He painted 170 canvases during his time in Argenteuil. For the year of the first Impressionist exhibition in 1874, Monet painted the Argenteuil Bridge seven times.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>8. The model in many of Monet\u2019s famous paintings is his wife, Camille<\/h4>\n<p>Monet\u2019s first major recognition came in 1866 from the piece, <i>La Femme \u00e0 la Robe Verte (The Woman in the Green Dress).<\/i> It was Monet\u2019s first successful venture in the Â鶹APPian art world, featuring 19-year-old Camille Doncieux, who would later become his wife.<\/p>\n<p>The life-size painting was done in a more conservative style to please critics, and it worked. At the height of his work in Impressionism he would paint &nbsp;Woman with a Parasol \u2014 a portrait featuring Camille, who was now his wife, and his son. It was accepted with much praise when revealed at the second Impressionist exhibition in 1876.<\/p>\n<p>But their story was not without scandal. Rumor has it, when Camille fell ill Monet had a liaison with a married woman, Alice Hosched\u00e9, who the author eventually married after Camille&#8217;s death.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13258\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"577\" height=\"901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet4.jpg 577w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/monet4-192x300.jpg 192w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 577px) 100vw, 577px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>The Woman in the Green Dress, by Claude Monet.

Here are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/10-reasons-go-monets-house-giverny\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10 reasons why you should visit<\/a> his remarkable home.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>11. His friend Eugene Boudin gave him advice on how to become a landscape painter<\/h3>\n<p>The first landscape painter to paint outdoors, Eugene Boudin earned the moniker The King of the Skies after meeting Monet in Le Havre. Boudin saw the young Monet&#8217;s talent and encouraged him to paint in Normandy with him en Plein air. When it came to Monet&#8217;s growth as a landscape painter, Boudin&#8217;s drive to capture light in his works served as an important source of inspiration.<\/p>\n<h3>12. <strong>Monet Attempted Suicide<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Monet attempted suicide in 1868 by jumping over a bridge into the Seine. He was deeply depressed and had no means of support. Despite overcoming the setback and emerging as one of the most well-known painters of the late 19th and early 20th century, Monet continued to battle depression for the remainder of his life.<\/p>\n<h3>13. Residents Near Monet&#8217;s Garden Were Not Fans<\/h3>\n<p>Monet&#8217;s family relocated to Giverny in 1883, where they established the renowned garden that is still present today. Monet purchased additional acreage in 1893 and diverted a river to create his water garden. He brought in plants from all over the world, including his well-known water lilies, in an effort to make the garden as aesthetically beautiful as possible. However, his neighbors were cattle farmers who were concerned that his new aquatic vegetation might contaminate the water and harm their livestock.<\/p>\n<p>Local officials advised Monet to get rid of the plants, but he disregarded their advice and the lilies ended up becoming one of his most significant sources of inspiration.<\/p>\n<h3>14. In thirty years, he produced 250 &#8220;Water Lilies&#8221; paintings<\/h3>\n<p>It makes sense that many people first think of water lilies when discussing Monet. Water lilies appeared in about 250 of Monet&#8217;s paintings throughout the course of his final three decades.<\/p>\n<h3>15. <strong>He Frequently Repainted the Same Subjects<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Even though Monet painted more water lilies than any other subject throughout his life, they weren&#8217;t the only ones. Monet frequently produced a series of paintings that examined how the same scene altered according to the time of day, season, and weather. He produced a series of Haystacks from 1890 to 1891 in addition to the water lilies, and he also painted the Rouen Cathedral from 1892 to 1894.<\/p>\n<div id=\"disco-3438798649\" class=\"disco-amazon-box-2024 disco-entity-placement\"><div style=\"width: 100%; border: 2px solid lightgray; padding: 3% 6% 3% 3%; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Planning a trip to Â鶹APP ?
