There is a well known picture of Monet and Georges Clémenceau standing standing on the Japanese bridge. As your pictures show, the bridge and the pond are the stars of the show.

HeinzX Posted May 19, 2013 Share #9 Posted May 19, 2013 Henry, beautiful pictures and impressions from a very famous place. I like the paintings of the impressionists very much - and Monet is together with Renoir one of my favourite of them. The most important are the colors not the lines ...

Thank you Heinz for your nice comment Yes I love the Impressionists too (with Renoir) where we can find the beauty (as in a painting) which was thought lost and finally goes well with our modern civilization ! Here is a picture of Monet's garden with the entrance of his house painted in beautiful pink and green ! You cross a beautiful path lined with roses and flowers of all colors Really wonderful !
