Hippocampus Editions Book Monet The Art + Great

The new series L'arte + grande, presented in a precious binding, offers a close-up look at the greatest artists of all time. The impeccable reproduction of dozens of canvases is accompanied by six large-format fold-out inserts, which allow you to observe some of these masterpieces in minute detail.

Painting the moment, the changing forms of nature and above all the light: this is the aim of the tireless research of Claude Monet. With his rapid and fragmented touches, the leader of the Impressionist movement was able to convey on canvas the atmosphere of the Norman coasts and the wind in the trees, the shimmer of the sun on the Seine and the dazzling beauty of the southern coasts.

Up to the inexhaustible variations of the series dedicated to the Cathedral of Rouen, the haystacks in the fields, the poplars of Giverny and the famous water lilies of his water garden. Master of the plein air, in contrast with the Academy, Monet revolutionized art by anticipating the risks of abstraction and leaving us a work of vibrant modernity.
