[Flame Tree Publishing] Monet's radical views of the Thames are evocative and luminous. In association with the Courtauld, a fine new art calendar from Flame Tree. Produced in partnership with The Courtauld gallery, this calendar showcases a selection of the many radical and moody views of the Thames painted by Monet during his stays in London. Less well-known perhaps than his paintings of French locations and waterlilies, the series of works depicting Charing Cross Bridge, Waterloo Bridge and the Houses of Parliament are something to behold. Monet presented these locations as they'd never been seen before, revealing his intense investigation of the light effects of weather, atmosphere, season and time of day. Thus we have everything from smoky industrial visions and moody, misty vistas to radiant sunsets on sparkling water. Informative text accompanies each work and the datepad features previous and next month’s views. Printed on FSC-certified paper, with plastic-free packaging.
