A Must Own if You Love Monet

This is a large, heavy and durable book that brings you a great portrayal of Claude Monet, with wonderful pictures both in color and black and white, along with interesting and intimate commentary about his life during the time he created his paintings. One of the full color pictures is of "Green Reflections" where the picture is over 27 feet (847 cm) long. The back of the book has an in depth index of paintings, colleagues, associations, museums, and the names of Monet's paintings. Highly Recommended for impressionist art lovers. Barbara Rose, author of, `Individual Power' and `If God Was Like Man'

It's Grrrreat!!

I saw this book in my local bookstore and immediatly snatched it up! It got a TON of paintings done by Monet, most of them in color. Though the actual biography about him is slim, the articles by past painters, colleagues, and friends are wonderful. Be warned: It's a heafty book, but undoubtedly delightful!!
