Monet in venice

absolutely great show at the De Young in San Francisco. For me one of the best shows ever.

Monet in many periods; Canaletto, Sargent, Whistler and so many who went there in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Even many prints of souvenirs that people bought when they made the grand tour.

Look at the photo below very carefully and read the accompanying explanation. You will see a self portrait of Monet in shadow. A particularly interesting picture.
