I thought this was a wonderful graphic novel. It is filled with wonderful illustrations, many which capture the art style of Claude Monet. It also does a nice job humanizing the painter. Too often we learn of historical figures but forget that they were also people and had lives.
I hope this sparks a trend on portraying historical events and biographies in graphic novel format.
Monet: Itinerant of Light is a biography of the French artist Monet written in graphic novel form.
Artists are perfect subjects for a graphic novel, I think.
Happily, I read this book while I was in France, while I visited Monet's garden in Giverny.
