Reviews
The art is phenomenal. What is unique is the author's intimate knowledge of gardening. She relates this knowledge to Monet's life and work clearly and with great sensitivity,. Through the book Holmes helps us see the symbiotic relationship between Giverny's Gardens and much of Monet's art. Monet the gardener and Monet the artist mutually learn from each other. The gardens shape the art, and the art influences the development of the gardens. MONET AT GIVERNY is more than a "coffee table" book. It is a well crafted work that invites us to a clearer understanding and appreciation of Monet the human being.
