Claude Monet spent countless days perfecting his garden in Giverny, France – not only for his own joy, but to use as an inspiration for his paintings. A true master of making his paintings feel alive, Monet is remembered as the father of Impressionism. “I would like to paint the way a bird sings,” Monet once said. Strolling through Monet’s peaceful gardens, you will certainly understand why he felt this way. | TAUCK
