Travel Guide
The world of Monet
Giverny
Claude Monet’s house & ornate gardens is the place to go to see the pictures for real. Fondation-monet.com is now where the house still stands as a homage to the great painter himself. This really is the best place to visit if you’re a Monet fan since he lived here for forty-three years, from 1883 to 1926. He loved gardening and flowers as the colours fascinated him and he regarded his flower garden and water garden as true works of art. When you realise, this is where the Master of Impressionnism was inspired by, you can understand a little more about the great man himself
The National Gallery in London holds many paintings
