Mini-book (only about 64 small pages) about Claude Monet. It's a brief overview of his (adult) life, noting his artist friends, his trouble with debt, and his two marriages. Several color pictures are included, but oddly, some are from other artists (Boudin, Renoir, Whistler) and are not specifically mentioned in the text. The book probably has about as much information as a one-hour TV biography -- good for knowing small trivial bits but not an exhaustive commentary of his life.
