Description
Discover Monet’s inspiration at Giverny led by an art historian. Enjoy a visit to the magnificent gardens, house and art studio where Monet spent 43 years developing his art and nurturing his gardens. Experience both the Water Garden and the Clos Normand, with the beautiful flower gardens, fruit and ornamental trees, Japanese bridge and water lilies that are different with each season. The Monet Foundation does a wonderful job of maintaining the property as Monet kept it when he was alive and it stands today as a reminder of his amazing talent.
After your visit you lunch is at the nearby restaurant of Moulin de Fourge, an 18th century mill overlooking the river. The scene is reminiscent of an impressionist landscape and will certainly carry on the impressionist theme for the day.
