Opening on 30 January Painting the Modern Garden: Monet to Matisse at the Royal Academy of Arts, London explores the garden as a subject in the development of early 20th century art.
Monet was both a famous painter and gardener with his gardens at Giverny sill drawing 100’s of visitors every year. Taking his amazing impressionist images as a starting point this exhibition will walk you through gardens captured by Renoir, Cezanne, Manet, Sargent, Kandinsky, Van Gogh, Klimt and Klee.
If you are inspired by these painters to get some fresh florals in to brighten up your room we have a fantastic selection of floral prints from Claude Monet’s waterlilies through Klimt’s sunflower to Warhol’s Daisy.
