About This Piece
The Art
Claude Monet (1840 – 1925) was an French Impressionist genius who surmounted harsh criticism to shatter accepted artistic conceptions regarding composition. As in “Poppies,” the artist only painted patches of color and light that suggest an impression of a form, allowing the viewer’s eye to fuse them into meaningful shapes. Painting outdoors, Monet worked rapidly to capture the ever-changing effects of light, resulting in the free-flowing shapes, swift brushstrokes, and vibrant cascades of color in “Poppies.”
This giclée print delivers a vivid image with maximum color accuracy and exceptional resolution. The standard for museums and galleries around the world, giclée is a printing process where millions of ink droplets are “sprayed” onto high-quality paper. With the great degree of detail and smooth transitions of color gradients, giclée prints appear much more realistic than other reproduction prints. The high-quality paper (235 gsm) is acid free with a smooth surface.

The Artist
Claude Monet (1840 – 1926), the founder of Impressionism, was one of the most influential landscape painters in the history of art. Born in Paris, Monet was enrolled in the studio of Glenyre, where he met Renoir, Sisley, and Bazille, who became the core of the Impressionist group. Painting outdoors, he broke the tradition of portraying a subject literally by conveying the fleeting effects of atmosphere, time of day, and season upon color and light. Eliminating black and gray from his palette, he represented natural color like a prism, breaking it down into its individual components, often painting a series of the exact same view under different light and weather conditions. Monet brought the study of the transient effects of natural light to its most refined expression, ultimately becoming a forerunner of 20th century modernism.
