Collection: Monet in Focus

Cleveland Museum of Art

March 31–August 11, 2024

This exhibition of five stellar paintings by French Impressionist Claude Monet features three special loans from the Musée Marmottan Monet in Paris placed in intriguing conversation with two favorites from the Cleveland Museum of Art’s collection. Created during the latter half of the artist’s life, these works reveal how fully Monet immersed himself in capturing the momentary effects of light and atmosphere on subjects, at various times of day and under different weather conditions. Daring in their conception and execution, they also affirm Monet’s status as one of the leading cutting-edge painters of his era. Monet in Focus is co-organized by the Cleveland Museum of Art and the Musée Marmottan Monet.
