Bouquet of Sunflowers Claude Monet Date: 1880 Style: Impressionism Genre: flower painting
Claude Monet painted The Bouquet of Sunflowers in 1881. Six floral still lifes were included in Monet's submission to the seventh Impressionist exhibition.
Monet had painted bouquets of flowers on occasion throughout his career, and now, in a time of financial crisis, his own garden offered an alternative to expensive travel searching for subjects to paint. Critics praised these works and expressed surprise at Monet's mastery of such a traditional subject.
