essay:
Claude Monet was born on 14 November 1840 on the fith floor of a hotel..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. As Oscar-Claude, but his parents called him simply Oscar.His father wanted him to go into the family grocery business, but Monet wanted to become an artist. His mother was a singer.
On the first of 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 Jacque-fracoi, a former student of Jacques-Louis. On the beaches of Normandy in about 1856/1857, he met fellow artist Eugène boudans who became his mentor and taught him to use oil paints. Boudin taught Monet outdoor techniques for painting.Both received the influence of Johan Barthold.
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.
Monet died of cancer on 5 December 1926 at the age of 86 and is buried in a church cemetery. Monet had insisted that the occasion be simple; thus only about fifty people attended the ceremony.
His home, garden and waterlily pond were bequeathed by his son Michel, his only heir, to the French Academy of Fine Arts in 1966. Through the Fondation Claude Monet, the house and gardens were opened for visit in 1980, following restoratio. In addition to souvenirs of Monet and other objects of his life, the house contains his collection of Japenese wood cuts The house is one of the two main attractions of his life. Which hosts tourists from all over the world.
