It is in Giverny, a tiny village (population 500) in the northwest of Paris, that Claude Monet lived with his family from 1883 to 1926 and satisfied his passion for painting, gardening and photography. Here, the leading Impressionist painter painted some of his most famous series of works, including Water Lilies. Monet's home still shows some of the artist’s works of art.
Numerous painters, in particular American ones, learned about Impressionism with the master in this house surrounded by a colored flower-filled garden, a garden of water and its famous Japanese bridge.
