A couple of years ago my husband and I spent a couple of weeks in Europe.  One of my fondest memories included a visit to Claude Monet's home in Giverny, France.  I actually got to see the actual Lily Pond that inspired the Monet paintings. 

I'm so excited that they have taken Claude Monet's paintings on the road.  Over 50 paintings by this beloved impressionist are here in Raleigh.  This exhibit is a must see!!  His paintings include that  of Normandy's fields and coast, the garden and water lily pond at Giverny, and Rouen's cathedral.   For more details Visit the Monet in Normandy Web site!

Ions ago when I was in college at George Washington U, in D.C., I was priveleged to visit The Monet Exhibit at the National Gallery of Art.  What a delight! From that time on he has been one of my favorite artists.

I  lived in Manhattan for many years and had the opportunity again to view marvelous Monet collections on tour, and in those in permanent residence at the Met. 

All I can say is don’t miss the chance, if you have one, to experience the awesome works of this artistic genius!

I love Monet too.  I've been fortunate to visit a couple exhibits of his work over the years.  Including the one at the National Gallery back in the 80's that Ginger mentions.  At least I assume it was the same one....

Enjoy the experience!

Hi Trace, 

 Since I just moved back to Raleigh thanks for the heads up.  I loved the Monet exhibit when I visited Paris for the French Open...

Thanks!!
