Monet's paintings, which showcase his dedication to gazing at and painting landscapes, continue to fascinate people today. Nearly 100 years have passed since Monet began work on his masterpiece, "Water Lilies," in his final years. This work, with its rich harmonies of color that envelop the viewer, is often cited when examining its influence on art history. However, a renewed look at Monet's long career reveals that the artist's unique and pioneering spirit is imprinted in his works from every period. This exhibition brings together 25 paintings from Monet's early to late years, along with 65 works by 26 artists of later generations, highlighting the timeless connection between the two. Beyond the historicized title of "master of Impressionism," visitors can explore the richness and universal appeal of Monet's art, which continues to live on. Why not explore this exhibition and discover why you love each of his works?
