Claude Monet (1840-1926)* lived at Giverny for 43 years, from 1883 to his death in 1926.
A passionate horticulturist, his garden became a work of art as well as a subject for his paintings.
From the Iris garden to his huge waterlily canvases, the garden at Giverny was the focus for some of Monet’s greatest works of art.
