The year 2026 will mark the centenary of the death of the painter Claude Monet (1840-1926). To commemorate this anniversary, the Musée de l’Orangerie is organizing an exhibition focused on Monet's relation of his work to time. He has long been regarded as the quintessential impressionist since the 1870s, although he participated in only five group exhibitions. His work quickly comes to be indistinguishable from the 'new painting', as it encapsulates its defining features (often executed outdoors, with a swift brushwork and clear harmonies revealing the impression of time…)
