alongside stunning reproductions of his paintings, and moments from
his life in Giverny. The recipes include a breadth of rustic and
simple dishes, from comforting casseroles, sultry seafood dishes,
and French tarts, pastries and cakes; an honour to Monet and his

art in itself. Inspired by the impressionist masterpieces of Claude
Monet and the dishes prepared in his Giverny, France, kitchen, this
part coffee table book, part cookbook features 80 recipes as
vibrant and full of life as the paintings that Monet used to
paint."
