Some of these were in storage when I was there. I probably will never make it back, who really knows, but I hope this is a permanent exhibit. Monet is the man. Btw, while visiting Monet's home a young man was weeding the garden and I asked for one of the weeds. It was an immature goldenrod. I still have it.
I went yesterday, and I really enjoyed seeing the exhibit. It’s a shame that it’s no longer available… I was hoping to have family come and see the exhibit as well…
I have been lucky enough to see Canadian exhibits of Fantin-Latour, Degas, Renoir, The Queen's Art Exhibit ( some of the FINEST pieces in the world were sent from England to Canada). But I so wish that I had the opportunity to drool over Monet's works. Particularly from the latter part of his life. I love what I have seen of his gardens and the water features. I wish I could go to Chicago! Um....there's an Egyptian museum there as well, yes?
Great exhibit, but the video would have been much better with a series of still shots (or slow moving video) where each painting being discussed fills all or most of the screen while the photographer slowly zooms in on some details. Instead, a lot of time is spent panning the exhibit while walking through the exhibit rooms, rapidly scanning lots of paintings that appear much too distant and small to be appreciated.
At the 17 minute mark, I have the haystack setting Sun ,the one on the left we're in the same frame also. There is an e on the documentation that now I assume meant exhibit.
Thd commentary was excellent, but the slowness of the video and the barest glance at the paintings was a spoiler for me. I should imagine that this was made to encourage people to see the works at the exhibition, but it left me feeling unsatisfied. It would have been great if the curator had stopped for longer at fewer paintings - there is so much to Monet!
About twenty years ago the Art Institute had a huge exhibition of Monet paintings from many collections. It was so wonderful, especially since the AI didn't play a constant, brainless, irritating soundtrack.
This is a disappointing video. You didn't show proper close ups of the paintings especially the waterlilies. Monet had people build the Japanese bridge and there were gardners that planted the waterlilies and maintained the pond. Read the book Monet's Garden. Monet is my favourite artist. This video doesn't do his paintings justice..
"You don't think of still-lifes as being vertical." What a silly thing for Ms. Groom to say. Art history is awash in vertically oriented still-lifes. Still, if I lived near Chicago I would often visit this exhibition
@@Ziad3195 Arguably, but the Ms. Groom's narration doesn't bother to qualify her assertion with the term "mostly." "You don't think of still-lifes as being vertical" is absurd and factually incorrect. It implies that vertical still-lifes do not exist, or are so rare as to render the idea of a vertical still-life as an oddity, a curiosity. As I stated, there are many vertical still-lifes in the history of art. And anyone familiar with the history of still-life is well aware of this. So Ms. Groom's statement is indeed silly.
@@Donald_McE Still lifes are one of my favourite genres. Yes, you find many vertical still lifes just because the sheer amount of paintings painted mean that a lot of vertical ones were painted too. That being said, a lot, a lot more we're painted horizontally. Can you list 10 you enjoy that are painted? horizontally

@@0083theo for a Monet it is too bombastic those golden baroquisc frames nonetheless it gives good on that petrol wall. It think of nuttree frames finer cherrytree frames in a half brown colour and then put the spotlights on it. Monet is classic and soft.
@@0083theo I don't say it is not beautiful. Colour appreciation differs much in the US. On such a wall I would do Picasso, Miro. Rubens, Van Dijck or Rembrandt but no Van Gogh, Lautrec , Renoir . What would work is to present Turners in it, just like it is. Impressionists and neo impressionists are pastel. So with Monet I would emphasize the shady lights. I guess the same disposition in the Louvre would create reactions like they put Monet in the obscure and gave him a baroque scarf. The exihibition starts off with the lilies no?

I had the absolute honor of visiting this exhibition 3 times. World class exhibition.
This was a marvelous show and a once-in-a-lifetime art event. Bravo!
What a wonderful way to spotlight this exhibition! Enjoyed it very much.
They are extraordinary. Thank you for this tour. So wonderful.
Beautiful! Would've loved to see in person but this is the next best thing! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 😊 so much for this tour. I absolutely love ❤️ the narrator’s voice.
A wonderful virtual tour. Thank You!
Gloria! What an amazing exhibition. Brava!
Such a beautiful exhibit! Thank you for posting!
Thank you so much, what a beautiful collections you have , certainly a great treasure for humanity and world of arts.🙏❤️
Beautiful exhibition all the paintings together in a space just for them. I saw them once but in different areas. Thank you from 🇨🇷🇨🇷
I can stay at this exhibition the whole day, Monet’s eye for colour, those master strokes..
Seeing Monet at the Musee de L'Orangerie ...Amazing! Will have to visit this exhibit...
Ah, his works there are amazing!
Brilliant! Makes me wish I seen the collection in person !!!
Imagine Monet would walk through this exhibition. I guess he would LOVE it.
I applaud the curators for their sensitive selection of wall colors.
I also enjoyed the wall colors. Well done
this was so pleasant, great work! Thank you for sharing!
Great video! Feels like i'm walking though the museum
this was lovely! thank you for sharing
Beautiful presentation!
Monet had such a way with color. I love ❤️ his use of cool 😎 colors.
Privileged to visit last weekend. The Water Lilly Room takes your breath away.
This was an exceptional tour and very enjoyable. The docent is exceptionally knowledgeable and articulate. Thank you. What a gift.
Thank you always nice to look at great art
Beautiful, I need to come visit!

A well-done teaser for the Monet show! I need to do my first trip to the Art Institute since April of 2020...
I was there last weekend. Pictures and videos do not come close to seeing it in person.
I went yesterday, and I really enjoyed seeing the exhibit. It’s a shame that it’s no longer available… I was hoping to have family come and see the exhibit as well…
Please, I’m in desperate need to know what painting is shown at 10:28 . Does anyone know ???
Look up 'Branch of the Seine Near Giverny' (1897). I think that might be helpful.

Salute the great masters
Marvellous!
Thank you, please give us more of these Art showings
Yes, please!
Thank you💐
Thanks for sharing!
Are all works at the museum originals, or are some duplicates?
Great exhibit, but the video would have been much better with a series of still shots (or slow moving video) where each painting being discussed fills all or most of the screen while the photographer slowly zooms in on some details.

Can’t see the amazing details of each painting
Absolutely gorgeous video, but Bordighera is in Italy not "south of France".
Merci Beaucoup. Se magnifique!

Post a video of it
I will as soon as I can.thank you
open for 4th quarter s tomorrow's Sunday school hours
thank you for your patience s
I have a Monet, haystacks from 1891 # 281 still in frame, is this of any value?
What a silly question.
I really would like to know, I have the Chicago Art institute documentation to prove it too. Thank you ☺️
I'm sure it's worth a fortune...better hurry and post it on Craigslist!

I saw that show, show of a lifetime, I’ve seen it all after that.

Still lifes are definitely mostly horizontal.

@@Donald_McE It's a 20 minute video about Monet. Not the still life genre. Not every single detail will be explored in great length.

Sorry, but that blue environment with the strong lights focus on the paintings isolated one by one, don't deserve Monry, much to cold.
Very disappointed. I will never be able to attend an exhibition like this. Absolutely no close ups. Selfish.
Disappointed, yes. Yet we are very fortunate this video was made and uploaded for those of us that haven't had the opportunity to visit the exhibit.
Why can you “never” attend an exhibition like this? Are you disabled? Poverty-stricken?
Not enough time spent on showing actual paintings. Too fast and furious.
These blue walls are overwhelming the art.
White walls are the worst.
if anything the frames do
Slow down.
I don't like the frames.
Do tell, I’d love to know what don’t you like them about
