Exhibition “Monet. Capolavori dal Musée Marmottan Monet di Parigi”

Over fifty masterpieces exceptionally loaned by the Musée Marmottan Monet in Paris – including the famous Water Lilies – will retrace the story of the father of Impressionism, and one of the greatest artists of all time.
Through the exhibition of more than 50 iconic masterpieces – including the Water Lilies, Irises, London Landscapes and many more – visitors will be involved in a thrilling tale, enriched by spectacular rooms, lots of content, videos, testimonies and magical atmospheres.

The exhibition is also one of the last opportunities, at least for a few years, to see Monet’s major works in Italy.

The works on display in the exhibition are those kept at the Musée Marmottan Monet, donated by the artist’s son, which holds the largest and most important collection of paintings by the French artist, the result of a generous donation made by his son Michel in 1966.
These are the works that Monet cared most about, “his” works, those that the artist jealously preserved in his home in Giverny until his death, from which he never wanted to part. The exhibition is therefore also a journey into Monet’s intimate world, his home and his soul.
Masterpieces such as Portrait of Michel Monet with Pompom hat (1880), The train in the snow. The Locomotive (1875), London. Parliament. Reflections on the Thames (1905), as well as large-scale works such as the ethereal Water Lilies (1917-1920) and the evanescent Wisteria (1919-1920).
The exhibition, promoted by the City of Padua, is produced and organised by Arthemisia in collaboration with the Musée Marmottan Monet in Paris and is curated by Sylvie Carlier, general curator of the Musée Marmottan Monet, with the co-curatorship of art historian Marianne Mathieu and Musée Marmottan Monet curatorial assistant Aurélie Gavoille.
