Monet’nin bahçesi :)
The garden became a part of Monet, and he of it; it entered into his soul and (most important for him) his eye. Wherever he travelled, he always asked after his flowers in letters home. The garden on sunny days was very life to him, and when it rained he withdrew to bed, depressed.
To him, a subject was not what it was but what the light made of it.
📚🔔 Tatil zili çaldı! Bir yıl boyunca verilen emeklerin ardından şimdi dinlenme, keşfetme ve yeni maceralara atılma zamanı. 🌞 Bu yaz bol kahkahalı, bol anılı ve elbette bol kitaplı geçsin. Tüm öğrencilere keyifli tatiller diliyoruz! 💙📖
What the Impressionists in general, and Monet in particular, aimed to preserve was the visual freshness of that first fleeting moment, free of categories of perception or traditional precept.
Nowadays we do not perceive Impressionism as constituting a revolutionary new departure, or the achievement of a single artist; rather, we view it as a further development of ideas, techniques and observations that recurred throughout the first half of the 19th century, even if it was left to Monet and his fellows to apply them with full radical rigour.
Nothing in the whole world is of interest to me but my painting and my flowers.
"For me, the subject is of secondary importance: I want to convey what is alive between me and the subject."
