OIL PAINTING: Poppy Field at Giverny , 1885
Claude Monet was and still is one of the most famous painters in the world. Monet painted for money, but he also liked to paint for the joy of it. Most of his paintings are scenes of water or nature. This is because Monet liked the way the outdoors looked in different seasons, in different light.
