Claude Monet

<p>Claude Monet. You simply cannot say the man&#39;s name without thinking of Impressionism.<p> <p>One of the founders of the movement, Monet&#39;s art embodied the movement&#39;s philosophy of expressing one&#39;s self and their perception of nature. The Impressionist movement even took its name from one of his most famous paintings, Impression, Sunrise.<p> <p>Monet was a man deeply affected by his surroundings, and that can be seen and felt throughout his art. His body of work is vast and is representative of different periods of his life, as well as of different events impacting him. An example of this can be seen in any of his works with weeping willows during World War One, with the trees representing the fallen French soldiers.<p> <p>His constant depictions of the leisurely activities and the stunning landscapes of Paris and the Normandy coast at the time showcased his unique and unusual style that truly showcased the very depth and breadth of nature at its finest.

<p>On the advice of the French painter Charles-Francois Daubigny, Claude Monet traveled to the Netherlands in 1871, where he painted this landscape of limpid waters and azure skies along the Achterzaan River in Zaandam. Writing to fellow Impressionist Camille Pissarro, Monet noted the pleasures of painting the picturesque Dutch landscape: This is a superb place for painting. There are the most amusing things everywhere: hundreds of windmills and enchanting boats, extremely friendly Dutchmen Using a limited palette of varying shades of green, Monet has captured the hazy atmosphere and light-dappled water of this picturesque Dutch port. Monet's Dutch landscapes were widely admired by other contemporary artists, especially Daubigny, whose own studies of light and water share an affinity.</p>
