The life of the great French painter, one of the founders of
Impressionism, is narrated in lush comic art reminiscent of his
style. From the Salon des Refuses (“Salon of the Rejected”) and
many struggling years without recognition, money, and yet a
family to raise, all the way to great success, critically and
financially, Monet pursued insistently one vision: catching the
light in painting, refusing to compromise on this ethereal
pursuit. It cost him dearly but he was a beacon for his
contemporaries. We discover in this comics biography how he came
to this vision as well as his turbulent life pursuing it.
