Monet and Architecture
National Gallery
Until July 29 2018
There’s never been a single exhibition looking at Monet’s career through the buildings he painted in Normandy, Paris, London and Venice.
From buildings in villages and by the coast to some of Europe’s most famous monuments, Monet painted the architecture of his time – modern, historic, simple and grand.
This fascinating exhibition gathers for the first time more than 75 of these engrossing paintings that show how he used architecture to create his compositions. Not to be missed.
