I took up my palette ' And the rest is art history. Again and again well over 200 times, and often working on an enormous scale Claude Monet, the founder and master of Impressionism, would return to water lilies as his subject. THE FINAL WORD. As William Morris said, "Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful."
