Publisher's Synopsis
Impressionist artist Claude Monet had a gourmet palate and supplied his daily table with the best of French cooking, even raising his own free-range chickens, turkeys and ducks. All of this provided motifs for his work. Sixty recipes linked to Monet's two-acre kitchen garden near his home at Giverny, France, plus photographs and descriptions of the house interiors and gardens capture Monet's extraordinary lifestyle at his home.
