Book Synopsis The Green Fingers of Monsieur Monet by : Giancarlo Ascari
Download or read book The Green Fingers of Monsieur Monet written by Giancarlo Ascari. This book was released on 2015. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a perfect first-facts book about Monet, telling the story of the artist and his work through the famous garden at Giverny that so inspired him. Monets lavish paintings are re-imagined in zesty, energetic and amusing ways with illustrations that younger readers will find amusing and engaging. They tell the story of Monet and his garden: his arrival; the country clothes he wore; the bright Japanese prints he collected; how the Impressionist artist painted outdoors, rain or shine; the thousands of seed-packets he ordered; his gardeners, who have to leave Giverny to go to war. Spread by spread the garden is explained and built up with Ascaris and Valentiniss original illustrations, which take Monets work as their starting point and transform it in beautiful and unexpected ways.

Book Synopsis Public Parks, Private Gardens by : Colta Ives
Download or read book Public Parks, Private Gardens written by Colta Ives. This book was released on 2018-03-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spectacular transformation of Paris during the 19th century into a city of tree-lined boulevards and public parks both redesigned the capital and inspired the era’s great Impressionist artists. The renewed landscape gave crowded, displaced urban dwellers green spaces to enjoy, while suburbanites and country-dwellers began cultivating their own flower gardens. As public engagement with gardening grew, artists increasingly featured flowers and parks in their work. Public Parks, Private Gardens includes masterworks by artists such as Bonnard, Cassatt, Cézanne, Corot, Daumier, Van Gogh, Manet, Matisse, Monet, and Seurat. Many of these artists were themselves avid gardeners, and they painted parks and gardens as the distinctive scenery of contemporary life. Writing from the perspective of both a distinguished art historian and a trained landscape designer, Colta Ives provides new insights not only into these essential works, but also into this extraordinarily creative period in France’s history.
