Claude Monet: The Colour of Time by Virginia Spate
A close examination of Claude Monet's work, his surviving letters and contemporary documentary material yields a full account of this complex and influential man, and provides a valuable contribution to the art history of Impressionism and to the study of the roots of modernism.
"Acclaim for Claude Monet: The Colour of Time 'Claude Monet: The Colour of Time astonishes the reader with the extents of its probing enquiry into the work of Claude Monet and the times in which he lived, and renders all others superfluous and trivial.. a very good book' - Brian Sewell 'Art book of the year' - The Independent on Sunday 'Dazzling... I cannot imagine how we have done without it' - Marina Vaizey, The Financial Times 'An extraordinary book... a new, original and complete study of the work and times of Claude Monet... No other is as rich, as intelligent, as substantial... a major contribution, I believe, to cultural history as well as art history... it will replace all other studies' - Linda Nochlin"
Virginia Spate holds the Chair in the Department of Fine Art at the Power Institute, University of Sydney.
