Born in 1840 and encouraged from a young age to paint outdoors, Monet\u2019s ambition was to document the French countryside and the passing of the seasons. Monet was the founder of the Impressionist movement and this new style of painting was a way for artists to free themselves from the more traditional style that was predominant at the time.<\/p>\n<p>Some of Monet\u2019s most famous paintings were of the garden in Giverny including the renowned \u2018<a title=\"claude monet the water lily pond\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/claude-monet-the-water-lily-pond\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Water Lily Pond<\/a>\u2019 \u00a0Monet lived in the house at Giverny until his death in 1926; his son Michel inherited the house and surrounding gardens.<\/p>\n<p>During the course of the Second World War, the house and gardens fell into a state of disrepair and it was not until 1977 that reconstruction was started on the garden to the plan set out by Monet. It took ten years to restore the garden and the house to their former glory. The property has been open to the public since September 1980.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Visiting Monet\u2019s Garden<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nThere are two parts to Monet&#8217;s garden, a flower garden called <em><strong>Clos Normand<\/strong><\/em> in front of the house and a <a title=\"about Japanese inspired gardens\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/blog\/index.php\/category\/japanese-gardens\/\">Japanese-inspired<\/a> <em><strong>Water Garden<\/strong><\/em> on the other side of a road, linked by an underpass walkway.<\/p>\n<p>The two parts of Monet&#8217;s garden \u2013 Clos Normand and The Water Garden &#8211; contrast and complement one another wonderfully. Both have been carefully restored to the finest detail, taking visitors back in time to the stunning display of nature that so inspired Monet.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Clos Normand<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nClos Normand is roughly one hectare and is a breath-taking garden full of perspectives, symmetries and colours. The land is divided into flowerbeds where ornamental fruit trees, <a title=\"climbing rose\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/plant\/rosa\/climbing-rose.html\">climbing roses<\/a> and <a title=\"clematis\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/plant\/clem\/clematis-armandii.html\">Clematis<\/a> grow in abundance together with pretty Peonies.
