Monet Paints a Day A glimpse into a day of Claude Monets life shows the painter racing against changing light, the incoming tide, and the elements as he paints an ocean scene in the plein-air style. Based on a true incident, the story is enhanced by brief facts about Impressionist painting, Monets life, and excerpts from the painters letters and notes.
