Rouen Cathedral, West Facade, Sunlight, 1894 Giclee Print by Claude Monet at AllPosters.com

Claude Monet (1840 – 1926) pioneered Impressionism, profoundly influencing landscape painting. From Paris, Monet met the nucleus of his Impressionist group while attending the studio of Glenyre. Making a break from established painting techniques, Monet captured the fleeting effects of time of day, atmosphere and season upon color and light. Like a prism, his artwork broke color into individual elements, and completely lacked black and gray tones. Monet often painted the exact same view numerous times to depict changing light and weather conditions. Refining the portrayal of natural light’s transient effects, his work broke ground for 20th century modernism.

This giclée print offers beautiful color accuracy. Giclée (French for “to spray”) is a printing process where millions of ink droplets are sprayed onto the paper’s surface creating natural color transitions. The high-quality paper (235 gsm) is a great option for framing with its smooth, acid free surface.

Comments:

I enjoy displaying photos, sketches, or paintings of places I visit in the exam rooms at my Family Practice office. It was hard to choose from among the many versions painted by Monet.

I purchased the print mounted on a board and it looks very nice. Good presentation.
