For forty-three years Monet lived and painted at Giverny and he created there one of the loveliest gardens ever known. For the first time, in this book both the gardens Monet planted and the gardens as they have been lovingly restored by Gérald Van der Kemp are seen together. In his introduction Van der Kemp tells how he brought the badly neglected garden and house back to their original condition. The restored gardens are beautifully photographed by Jena Barhto. In her fascinating essay, Claire Joyes captures Monet's vigor and great love of life, his temper and his famous cuisine. To accompany the essay the Monet family has contributed many period photographs of the irascible old master. The gardens inspired some of Monet's greatest painting -- the "Water Lilies", (the "Nymphea") the "Grand Allée". Seeing them side by side with the gardens as they are now and as they were is a great delight, and with Claire Joyes' text the book is an important aid in understanding Monet both as man and as painter. -- From publisher's description.
