Unit 15 Monets Garden
W: Claude Monet was a great artist. He was the
first of a group of artists called the
Impressionists. This group of artists thought
about how things in the world made them feel.
They tried to show this in their work. This way
of painting shows how light can change shapes
and colors.
Monet did a lot of his work outdoors. He
wanted to show how daylight made things look.
Many of his paintings are of gardens. He liked
to paint flowers and trees. He loved to paint in
his own garden. His garden was in a village. He
lived there for many years.
Today, many visitors come each year to this
garden. They come from all over the world.
Most of them are art lovers or artists. They
come to see the place that Monet loved so much.
