"From Impression, Sunrise—which gave its name to the Impressionist movement—to Water Lilies, from Saint-Lazare Station to the gardens of Giverny, everyone is familiar with the paintings of Claude Monet, whose centennial of his passing we commemorate this year. In partnership with the Musée Marmottan Monet (Paris) and the House and Gardens of Giverny, the Académie des beaux-arts offers an intimate look at this masterful body of work and invites you to explore it. Let’s imagine Monet’s daily life in Giverny with his wife, Alice Hoschedé, and their six children; let’s step into his kitchen ; let’s discover the evolution of the gardens; let’s explore unique aspects of his work—from train stations to bridges, from caricature to his contemporary legacy… Monet never ceases to surprise us. And to fill us with wonder."
