Works by Claude Monet.
Claude Monet was in great awe of flowers. An example of this is his own garden in Giverny, which everyone can visit at the moment. The second proof of the love of flowers is, of course, the paintings of the artist.
Throughout the life of Claude Monet, nature most often became the main character of the great painter's works. Monet carried a love for flowers – he admired them, grew them, and, of course, painted. Interestingly, he even painted his family surrounded by flowers, thereby emphasizing his love for them.
Lilies and water lilies occupy a special place in Monet's work. He fell in love with them in the late period of creativity.
1840 - 1926.
Werke von Claude Monet
Claude Monet behandelte die Farben mit großer Ehrfurcht. Ein Beispiel dafür ist sein eigener Garten in Giverny, den derzeit jeder besuchen kann. Der zweite Beweis für die Liebe zu Farben sind natürlich die Bilder des Künstlers.
Während des gesamten Lebensweges von Claude Monet wurde die Natur meistens zum Protagonisten der Werke des großen Malers.Durch sein ganzes Leben trug Monet die Liebe zu Blumen durch – er bewunderte sie, züchtete sie und zeichnete natürlich. Interessanterweise schrieb er sogar seine Familie in der Umgebung von Blumen und betonte damit seine Liebe zu ihnen.
Einen besonderen Platz in Monets Arbeit nehmen Lilien und Seerosen ein. Sie liebten ihn in der späten Schaffensperiode.
1840 - 1926.

Works by Henrietta Ronner-Knip.
The artist became famous for her work with cats and kittens. It is believed that it was she who introduced the fashion for anthropomorphism in animalism: animals began to be depicted as similar to people — with complex emotions, characters, and a deep meaningful look.
1821 - 1909.

Die Künstlerin wurde durch ihre Arbeiten mit Katzen und Kätzchen bekannt. Es wird angenommen, dass sie den Anthropomorphismus in der Animalistik in Mode gebracht hat: Tiere wurden wie Menschen dargestellt — mit komplexen Emotionen, Charakteren, einem tiefen, sinnvollen Blick.
