Claude Monet Édouard Manet Born 14 November 1840 Paris, France Realism, Impressionism Died 23 January 1832 – 30 April 1883) was a French painter. He was one of the first 19 th-century artists to paint modern life, and a pivotal figure in the transition from Realism to Impressionism. 5 December 1926 (aged 86) Oscar-Claude Monet (French: [klod mɔnɛ]; 14 November 1840 – 5 December 1926) was a founder of French Impressionist painting. The term "Impressionism" is derived from the title of his painting Impression, soleil levant (Impression, Sunrise), which was exhibited in 1874 in the first of the independent exhibitions mounted by Monet and his associates as an alternative to the Salon de Paris. Monet's ambition of documenting the French countryside led him to adopt a method of painting the same scene many times in order to capture the changing of light and the passing of the seasons.
