Claude Monet (1840-1926) was a pioneering French painter and one of the founders of the Impressionist movement, a style that sought to capture the fleeting effects of light and colour.

Born in 1840 in Paris, Monet's early years were spent in Le Havre, where he developed a love for drawing. He moved to Paris to pursue formal art training, where he befriended fellow artists such as Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Camille Pissarro.

Monet's approach to painting was revolutionary. Rather than focusing on the precise details of a subject, he sought to depict the transient effects of light and atmosphere. This is evident in his series of paintings such as 'Haystacks', 'Rouen Cathedral' and 'Water Lilies' where he painted the same scene at different times of day and seasons to capture the changing qualities.
