Vive la peinture en tube

The children discuss Claude Monet's Impression Sunrise. Painters at the time could now bring their paints in tubes to set up outside to paint. This is when Monet was able to paint in daylight and capture the effects of light. He was an impressionist. Monet did this painting with small touches of paint without mixing the colors, but putting them side by side to go faster. He painted this picture in only a few hours but it is the most famous in the world.
