Monet's book of recipes is wonderful! All the recipes are very easy to understand. The book is well written with insight into his lifestyle and with lots of photos. Recommend it highly.
Monet's Table
The book had water damage all along the back upper jacket cover - not disclosed in description of product on Amazon.com
Otherwise the product was to my satisfaction.
Sunday in the Kitchen with Claude
"Monet's Table" is a gorgeous exploration of everyday life in the Impressionist household. While Claude Monet revolutionized art, his cuisine at Giverny incorporated the everyday pleasures of Normandy. There are classic dishes like Coquilles St. Jacques and foie gras, but there are also stuffed onions and broth. Claude Monet even kept cooking journals. This is a discovery for those who have only seen his artwork. (I'd also recommend "Frida's Feasts" about the cuisine of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo) Monet put as much work into his cooking as he did his painting. The kitchen was also his canvas. Bon appetit!
