    1. MONET & IMPRESSIONISM A quick guide to the painters we will see at the Te Papa Exhibition to help us appreciate it more!

    2. Self Portrait-1886

    3. Let’s do the Monet quiz! Are these True or False? 1. Monet was a cartoonist. 2. Monet's father wanted him to go into the family grocery-store business, but Claude Monet wanted to become an artist. 3. The Impressionists made their own paints by hand. 4. The Impressionist movement was named after one of Monet’s paintings. 5. En plein air describes the brush-stroke technique employed by the Impressionists.

    4. 6. The first series exhibited by Monet was devoted to haystacks. 7. The established art world in France was quick to embrace the work of Impressionists. 8. Monet’s garden was created so he could paint it. 9. When Monet travelled to Paris to visit the Louvre Museum of art, he witnessed painters copying from the old masters. Monet would instead go and sit by a window and paint what he saw outside with the painting tools he often carried with him. 10. Camille Doncieux was the second wife of Claude Monet.

    5. Some of Monet’s caricatures

    6. Eugčne Boudin –Trouville, 1864 Monet's prodigious talent was first recognised by the landscape painter Eugčne Boudin, whom he met in Le Havre in 1858. Boudin encouraged Monet to give up drawing caricatures and to paint en plein air (in the open air)

    7. Turner & Constable Landscape important subject matter

    8. Impression Sunrise 1886

    9. Haystacks In 1890 and 1891, Monet painted a group of pictures of the stacks of wheat in the fields near his home They explore the interaction of light, color, and form over the course of the day and in different weather conditions. Grainstacks = symbols of the land's fertility, the local farmers' material wealth

    10. Rouen Cathedral In the winter of 1892 the artist spent several months studying and painting the façade of Rouen Cathedral in his native Normandy. Monet concentrated on the analysis of light and its effects on the forms of the façade, changing from one canvas to another as the day progressed.

    11. From the Rouen Cathedral series Actual cathedral

    12. Influence on Japonisme Ukiyo-e prints of the “Floating world” were influential for their compositions, use of line, suppression of details, and patches of colour

    13. Morning on the Seine, near Giverny 1897 “With the point of view suspended over the water, we are made to feel weightless, perhaps even bodiless. Almost symmetrical reflections threaten to disorient us, but Monet has left enough clues to let us know which way is up.”

    17. In the Exhibition Works by Renoir

    18. About Renoir Renoir showed in the Impressionist exhibitions of 1874, 1876, 1877, and 1882 also a faithful adherent of the classical tradition and submitted to the Salon regularly. His primary subject matter was the figure, and he experimented with portraits, genre-like scenes, and images of female bathers. In the early 1880s he traveled to Italy, North Africa, and the South of France. The Renaissance art and the light of the south prompted him to adopt a brighter, warmer palette, giving increased emphasis to line and structure.
