Madame Monet Wearing a Kimono: Claude Monet

Madame Monet Wearing a Kimono by French Impressionist painter Claude Monet highlights the European vogue for all things Japanese at the time. The kimono worn by Monet’s wife in this 1875 picture is painted with lavish detail while the face and especially the blonde wig are more loose and Impressionistic.

Claude Monet’s Madame Monet Wearing a Kimono is in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
