Summary ART & DESIGN STYLES: IMPRESSIONISM & POST-IMPRESSIONISM. This beautiful, slipcased volume offers an intimate tour inside Monet's home and through the idyllic Giverny garden that inspired his most iconic paintings. Monet first spotted the village of Giverny from the window of a train and then relocated to the rural haven outside Paris in 1883. An artist with a passion for painting landscapes and outdoor scenes, the garden at Giverny soon became the impressionist master's greatest artistic accomplishment and a catalyst for his work. In 1890, Monet began renovating it, installing a picturesque water lily pond inspired by the Japanese prints he avidly collected. The setting of Monet's Water Lilies series-his most famous works-it is now the most visited garden of its size in the Western world.
