"The most significant gathering of Monet's late paintings to take place in New York in more than thirty years, it will focus on the most important late subjects drawn from his gardens at Giverny—<em>Nymphéas</em>, <em>Le pont japonais</em>, and <em>L'allée de rosiers</em>—which are among the most treasured paintings of his long and prodigious career" I am looking forward to seeing it and if you are too, make sure you go soon.
