Happy Birthday Claude Monet! 🎂
This week, we are celebrating Monet's Birthday. The French artist was born on November 14, 1840. Learn everything about the art and life of the Father of Impressionism with our special playlist!
In August, The Art Newspaper reported that Donald Olson, an astrophysicist at Texas State University, had pinpointed the exact moment that Monet painted his work Impression: Sunrise to 13 November 1872. The report described this moment as the “birth of Impressionism.” In today’s episode, we discuss the painting and unravel some of the problems of this claim.
