19933164BB1993. New York Alfred A. Knopf 1993. 25 x 29 cm. XVII 318 pages. Original Softcover. Very good condition with minor signs of external wear. The Barnes Foundation is an American educational art and horticultural institution with locations in Merion Pennsylvania a suburb of Philadelphia; and Logan Square Philadelphia. It was founded in 1922 by Albert C. Barnes a chemist who collected art after making a fortune by co-developing an early anti-gonorrhea drug marketed as Argyrol and selling his company at the right time before antibiotics came into use. Today the foundation owns more than 2500 objects including 800 paintings estimated to be worth about $25 billion. These are primarily works by Impressionist and Modernist masters but the collection includes many other paintings by leading European and American artists as well as ancient works from other cultures. In the 1990s the foundation's declining finances led its leaders to various controversial moves including sending artworks on world tours and proposing to move the collection to Philadelphia. A 2009 documentary The Art of the Steal argued that the foundation had been taken over by other non-profit institutions. After numerous court challenges the new Barnes building opened on Benjamin Franklin Parkway on May 19 2012. The foundation's current president and executive director Thomas Thom Collins was appointed on January 7 2015. Wikipedia paperback

The term Impressionism is derived from the title of his painting Impression Sunrise Impression soleil levant. Claude Monet was born on 14 November 1840 on the 5th floor of 45 rue Laffitte in the 9th arrondissement of Paris.3 He was the second son of Claude Adolphe Monet and Louise Justine Aubrée Monet both of them second-generation Parisians. On 20 May 1841 he was baptized in the local parish church Notre-Dame-de-Lorette as Oscar-Claude but his parents called him simply Oscar.34 In 1845 his family moved to Le Havre in Normandy. His father wanted him to go into the family grocery business but Monet wanted to become an artist. His mother was a singer. On 1 April 1851 Monet entered Le Havre secondary school of the arts. Locals knew him well for his charcoal caricatures which he would sell for ten to twenty francs. Monet also undertook his first drawing lessons from Jacques-François Ochard a former student of Jacques-Louis David. On the beaches of Normandy in about 1856/1857 he met fellow artist Eugène Boudin who became his mentor and taught him to use oil paints. Boudin taught Monet "en plein air" outdoor techniques for painting. Both received the influence of Johan Barthold Jongkind. On 28 January 1857 his mother died. At the age of sixteen he left school and went to live with his widowed childless aunt Marie-Jeanne Lecadre. When Monet traveled to Paris to visit the Louvre he witnessed painters copying from the old masters. Having brought his paints and other tools with him he would instead go and sit by a window and paint what he saw. Monet was in Paris for several years and met other young painters who would become friends and fellow impressionists; among them was Édouard Manet. In June 1861 Monet joined the First Regiment of African Light Cavalry in Algeria for a seven-year commitment but two years later after he had contracted typhoid fever his aunt intervened to get him out of the army if he agreed to complete an art course at an art school. It is possible that the Dutch painter Johan Barthold Jongkind whom Monet knew may have prompted his aunt on this matter. Disillusioned with the traditional art taught at art schools in 1862 Monet became a student of Charles Gleyre in Paris where he met Pierre-Auguste Renoir Frédéric Bazille and Alfred Sisley. Together they shared new approaches to art painting the effects of light en plein air with broken color and rapid brushstrokes in what later came to be known as Impressionism. Monet's Camille or The Woman in the Green Dress La femme à la robe verte painted in 1866 brought him recognition and was one of many works featuring his future wife Camille Doncieux; she was the model for the figures in Women in the Garden of the following year as well as for On the Bank of the Seine Bennecourt 1868 pictured here. Camille became pregnant and gave birth to their first child Jean in 1867. After the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War 19 July 1870 Monet took refuge in England in September 1870 where he studied the works of John Constable and Joseph Mallord William Turner both of whose landscapes would serve to inspire Monet's innovations in the study of color. In the spring of 1871 Monet's works were refused authorisation for inclusion in the Royal Academy exhibition. In May 1871 he left London to live in Zaandam in the Netherlands where he made twenty-five paintings and the police suspected him of revolutionary activities. He also paid a first visit to nearby Amsterdam. In October or November 1871 he returned to France. Monet lived from December 1871 to 1878 at Argenteuil a village on the right bank of the Seine river near Paris and a popular Sunday-outing destination for Parisians where he painted some of his best known works. In 1874 he briefly returned to Holland. In 1872 he painted Impression Sunrise Impression soleil levant depicting a Le Havre port landscape. It hung in the first Impressionist exhibition in 1874 and is now displayed in the Musée Marmottan Monet in Paris. From the painting's title art critic Louis Leroy coined the term "Impressionism" which he intended as disparagement but which the Impressionists appropriated for themselves. Also in this exhibition was a painting titled Boulevard des Capucines a painting of the boulevard done from the photographer Nadar's apartment at no. 35. There were however two paintings by Monet of the boulevard: one is now in the Pushkin Museum in Moscow the other in the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City. It has never become clear which painting appeared in the groundbreaking 1874 exhibition though more recently the Moscow picture has been favoured. Monet and Camille Doncieux had married just before the war 28 June 1870 and after their excursion to London and Zaandam they had moved to Argenteuil in December 1871. It was during this time that Monet painted various works of modern life. Camille became ill in 1876. They had a second son Michel on 17 March 1878 Jean was born in 1867. This second child weakened her already fading health. In that same year Monet moved to the village of Vétheuil. On 5 September 1879 Camille Monet died of tuberculosis at the age of thirty-two; Monet painted her on her death bed. Wikipedia paperback
