General introduction: Here you will find an impression of the 29+3hc=32 pictures that were shown by Claude Monet at the fourth ‘impressionist’ exposition of 1879 (catalogue numbers 138-166+hc3). Partly it was a retrospective of some older paintings. But most of his paintings he exhibited, he had recently painted in Vétheuil and Lavacourt. Monet had moved to Vétheuil in 1878. Probably during the exhibition two extra pictures of Vétheuil were hung by Caillebotte on behalf of Monet. It is a feast of bright, vibrant colours! Note: If you double click on the first picture and then click on full screen, you can create a slideshow. Enjoy!
