A stunning hardcover art book celebrating the life and work of Claude Monet (1840–1926), the visionary French Impressionist painter. Monet: A Retrospective offers an in-depth look at the artist’s evolution, featuring 132 full-color plates, 119 black-and-white photographs, and a rich collection of historical essays, interviews, and contemporary critiques from Monet’s lifetime.
Edited by Charles F. Stuckey, noted curator of 19th-century European painting at the National Gallery of Art, this comprehensive coffee table art book brings together writings from renowned critics, including William Seitz, Clement Greenberg, A. Wolff, and Georges Clemenceau. Their commentaries—ranging from early skepticism to profound admiration—paint a vivid portrait of Monet’s enduring influence on modern art.
This large-format hardcover (first published in 1985 by Beaux Arts Editions and Hugh Lauter Levin Associates) includes a dust jacket, a detailed chronology, and several gatefold reproductions of Monet’s masterpieces. Ideal for collectors, art historians, and design enthusiasts seeking a beautifully illustrated coffee table centerpiece.
