When it comes to art, I’m a color lover. I can look at beautiful color combinations for a long time. If there’s one thing this collection of calendars shows, it’s that Claude Monet too was a lover of color: from sedate to vibrant, from romantic to fully expressive. There are a few very sweet dreamy calendars available this year.

Widely recognized as the founder of French Impressionism, Claude Monet is one of the great master painters in the history of modern art.
Throughout his long career of painting outdoors (en plein air), Claude Monet brilliantly captured the glory of radiant color in natural light. Included in this calendar are works from throughout Monet’s career, from his early paintings with figures and clear details, to the almost abstract, late career renderings of his garden at Giverny.
In childhood, Monet learned the basics of drawing from a student of the great Neoclassical master Jacques-Louis David. But instead of minutely detailed scenes of Roman drama, he preferred more familiar subjects, such as landscapes, captured with quick, flickering touches of the brush. With his friends Renoir and Sisley, he founded the movement that came to be called Impressionism. Among the many immortal works this school produced are Monet’s extraordinary studies of his water garden, two of which are reproduced here.
