[Machine Translation] Claude Monet, the master of Impressionism. We will visit Giverny in Normandy, France, where Claude Monet lived and worked from the age of 43 until his death. The book will take you to the house where Monet lived as it was when he lived there, and to his two famous gardens, the Garden of Flowers and the Garden of Water. This book is richly illustrated with beautiful seasonal gardens, the artist's masterpieces, and other materials. This colorful visual biography of Monet's life is written by Sanjiro Minamikawa ( 1945 -2018 ), a Paris-based photo graphic writer who has continued to pursue the essence of European art. The story of Monet and Giverny, captured from the perspective of such a legend, remains vivid and invites us into the world of the Impressionists.
