Customer Review: books and art by elizabeth muray
Elizabrth Murrray’s books and art work are beautiful and inspiring. I am contributing these volumes to the public school of my grandchildren to accompany thier new school garden. She has a new book of art by children in Equador called Nantu Aujujae but I couldn’t find it with your search, I wanted to include it with the other Elizabeth Murray books for the school. I hope you post it soon.
Customer Review: Murray’s book is the next best thing to being there.
An easy read and visual feast, Monet’s Passion exposes methods behind the color, texture, layout and scents of his magical gardens. It magnifies one’s experience visiting the gardens or his works in galleries, and is a valuable companion to the painter’s many works.

In 1870, to escape the Franco-Prussian war, Monet went to London and was joined there by Lucien Pissarro. Together the two went to the National Gallery and studied the works of Turner and Constable. Monet returned to Paris via Holland, and in 1872 he went back to LeHavre where he painted “An Impression, Sunrise”.
