Hailed the "Prince of the Impressionists", Claude Monet (1840 - 1926) transformed expectations for the purpose of paint on canvas. Defying the precedent of centuries, Monet did not seek to render only reality, but the act of perception itself. Working "en plein air" with rapid, impetuous brush strokes, he interrogated the play of light on the hues, patterns, and contours and the way in which these visual impressions fall upon the eye. Monet's interest in this space "between the motif and the artist" encompassed too the ephemeral nature of each image we see. In his beloved water lily ... |

Icon painting in Bulgaria is closely connected with the historical destiny of the Bulgarian people and with Christianity adopted in 865 as official state religion. That was the time of the emergence of a new pictorial system, interpreted and evolved on the basis of a rich ancient artistic heritage of the Graeco-Roman and Thracian cultures, but subordinated to the traditions and lifestyle of the proto-Bulgarian and Slavonic tribes, a fact which makes it so original.
