It could be said that Monet reinvented the possibilities of colour, and whether it was through his early interest in Japanese prints, his time in the dazzling light of Algeria as a conscript, or his personal acquaintance with the major painters of the late 1800s, what Monet produced throughout his long life would change forever the way we perceive both the natural world and its attendant phenomena. The high point of his explorations were the late series of waterlilies, painted in his own garden at Giverny, that, in their moves towards almost total formlessness, are really the origin of abstract art.

Daniel Wildenstein
Daniel Leopold Wildenstein (11 September 1917 – 23 October 2001) was a French art dealer and scholar, as well as a leading thoroughbred race horse owner and breeder.
Born in Verrières-le-Buisson, Essonne, France (just outside of Paris), Wildenstein inherited the responsibility in 1963 of running Wildenstein & Company, a five-generation family business founded in 1875 by Nathan Wildenstein (Daniel's grandfather). Today Wildenstein is one of the world's most successful art conglomerates with offices in London, New York City and Tokyo. Daniel Wildenstein was also a distinguished scholar of Impressionism, preparing catalogues raisonnés which include among others Claude Monet, Edouard Manet and Paul Gauguin. A Wildenstein Index Number refers to these catalogues. Wildenstein's interest in pursuing the publishing of catalogues raisonnés was a way of giving back to the community and improving the knowledge of artists' work. The Wildenstein Institute (a non profit organization) founded by Daniel's father, Georges, in Paris would serve as the means to accomplish this latter goal. In 1993, Wildenstein also ventured into contemporary art by forming a partnership with Arne Glimcher of Pace Gallery, thereby creating PaceWildenstein.
Wildenstein died in 2001 at the age of 84 in a Paris hospital following surgery complications, leaving his sons Alec and Guy in charge of family affairs. He was also survived by his wife, née Sylvia Roth, and six grandchildren.
