內容簡介：

Master of the sublime
The essential Impressionist
No other artist, apart from J.M.W. Turner, tried as hard as Claude Monet (1840–1926) to capture light itself on canvas. Of all the Impressionists, it was the man Cézanne called “only an eye, but my God what an eye!” who stayed true to the principle of absolute fidelity to the visual sensation, painting directly from the object.

It could be said that Monet reinvented the possibilities of color. Whether it was through his early interest in Japanese prints, his time as a conscript in the dazzling light of Algeria, or his personal acquaintance with the major painters of the late 19th century, the work Monet produced throughout his long life would change forever the way we perceive both the natural world and its attendant phenomena. The high point of his explorations was the late series of waterlilies, painted in his own garden at Giverny, which, in their approach toward almost total formlessness, are really the origin of abstract art.

This biography does full justice to this most remarkable and profoundly influential artist, and offers numerous reproductions and archive photos alongside a detailed and insightful commentary.

很好，有點小本，看著不過癮

印象派的代錶，捨財心裏，時間光在畫布上流動

我跟梵高的書一起買的，梵高莫奈在我心中的地位都很崇高

給愛人買的 以前不知道她喜愛印象派 後來還鬧齣個笑話 問她看過梵高的菊花沒（其實是嚮日葵） (?>?<?）大捂臉

很好，不過全英文的…

喜歡莫奈的顔色，其實自己的英語水平很渣，希望能看懂

印刷很好，就是書太小
