France, Giverni - Claude Monet House

Oscar-Claude Monet, a founder of French Impressionism, was known for his plein air landscape paintings. His painting 'Impressionism, soleil levant' gave the movement its name. Monet lived in Giverny, where he developed his famous gardens and water lily ponds, which became central to his work. His style evolved into a more abstract form over time. Monet passed away in 1926, and his home and gardens were later turned into a museum, attracting tourists worldwide.
