Claude Monet: how it started
Claude Monet was born in Paris in 1840. Monet started painting landscapes at the age of 24. Here he tried to capture the current state of the environment, showing with his works of art that the same environment looks different at different times of the day.
Monet's works of art caused a lot of art criticism, which led to impressionism. This new art movement was characterized by the fact that the painting was captured on everyday reality. Attention was paid to the incidence of light, the use of color and a sketch-like painting method was also used.
