| | Claude Monet Impressionist Painter |
| | Monet was the leader of a group of French artists called the "Impressionists," which included such painters as Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Camille Pissarro. | | | Monet exhibited a painting called "Impression: Sunrise." His painting gave the group its name, coined in derision by critic Louis Leroy referring to the entire exhibition as "Impressionistic." Despite the financial failure of this first exhibit, the Impressionist continued to exhibit together until 1886. | | | Monet moved to Paris in 1859, where he met and befriended Pissarro and Edouard Manet. |

| | Monet received crucial early guidance from two artists who specialized in painting seascapes out-of-doors, Eugène Boudin, a fellow painter from Le Havre, and Dutch artist Johan Barthold Jongkind, whom Monet met in 1862. | | | The culminating honor of Monet's career was the installation in the Orangerie des Tuileries, a museum in central Paris, of monumental paintings of water lilies, on which he had worked for more than a decade preceding his death. | | | Gardens were a recurrent theme for Monet in the 1870s, and paintings of his own garden dominate his later work. |

| | Claude Monet was born in Paris on November 14, 1840 but all his impressions as a child and adolescent were linked with Le Havre, the town to which his family moved about 1845. | | | His family was not against his wish to become a painter, but his independent views, criticism towards academic art and refusal to enter a decent school of art led to constant quarrels with his family. | | | Eventually Boudin persuaded the young Monet to paint in the open air with him and become a landscape painter. |

| | This practice was to remain the central most important factor in Monet's art for the whole of his lengthy career. | | | The founder and prime exponent of Impressionism, Monet was introduced to the practice of painting outside (plein air) by Eugéne Boudin, a seascape artist who worked along the coast of the young Monet's hometown, Le Havre. | | | Over the ten years following 1862, led by Monet, these artists worked out the spontaneous technique of painting dubbed (derisively at first by the inevitably hostile critics) "Impressionism," that is; raw, simple strokes of color juxtaposed - rather than blended - on the canvas, to create a sensation of shimmering light. |
