One of the best loved painters of all time for the delicate nature and light expressiveness of his paintings, Claude Oscar Monet was born on November 14, 1840 in Paris.

As a novice artist, he spent his childhood with his family in Le Havre, a city he left at the age of fifteen to move to Paris, on the advice of the painter Boudin. There he enrolled at the "Academìe Suisse" where, in addition to being inspired by the paintings of Delacroix, Daubigny and Corot, he met artists specialized in landscapes, such as Pissarro, Bazille, Sisley and Renoir.

At the end of the year he returned to Le Havre, but on April 29, 1861 he was called up to fight. In the autumn he returned to Paris and joined Gleyre's studio where he met Renoir and Sisley, as well as being reunited with Bazille. From this moment on, his commitment to identify painting and nature, image and form, and to grasp reality moment by moment, became the constant in his work.

His works of the 1970s-1980s gave fully expression to his impressionist conceptions. In 1911 Durand-Ruel organized two solo exhibitions for the artist in New York.

In the same year Monet was diagnosed with a double cataract, but the eye operation was postponed. Eye problems get worse yearby year. He fell ill with lung cancer in 1926. He died on December 5 of the same year in Giverny.
