"I'm struggling, I'm fighting, I'm working like a madman, but I'm not getting anywhere."
"I am very depressed and deeply disgusted with painting. It is really a continual torture."
"My life has been nothing but a failure, and all that's left for me to do is to destroy my paintings before I disappear."
"I'm completely disheartened. I don't know what to do with myself."
"I get madder and madder on giving back what I feel."
French Impressionist painter whose Impression, Sunrise (1872) named the movement, and whose late Water Lilies series anticipated 20th-century abstraction. Closely associated with Pierre-Auguste Renoir (Impressionist co-founder) and Camille Pissarro (Impressionist mentor figure). For an intellectual contrast, see the Académie des Beaux-Arts and the Salon, the French art establishment of the 1860s-70s — The Académie rejected Monet and the Impressionists throughout the 1860s-70s, forcing them to organize the 1874 Salon des Refusés that became Impressionism's launch. Monet's career is the canonical example of an artistic revolution that bypassed institutional gatekeeping — the Académie's rejection inadvertently created modernism.
