2022 Monet Wall Calendar

Monet has been described as “the driving force behind impressionism”. Crucial to the art of the Impressionist painters was the understanding of the effects of light on the local colour of objects; and the effects of the juxtaposition of colours with each other. Monet’s long career as a painter was spent in the pursuit of this aim.

2022 Japanese Woodblock Prints Calender

Utagawa Hiroshige was born in 1797 in Edo; now Tokyo. He was one of the last great ukiyo-e masters of the colour woodblock print. His genius for landscape compositions was first recognised in the West by the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists. Possessing the ability to reduce the pictured scene to a few simple; highly decorative elements; Hiroshige captured the very essence of what he saw and turned it into a highly effective composition. There was in his work a human touch that no artist of the school had heretofore achieved; his pictures revealed a beauty that seemed somehow tangible and intimate. Snow; rain; mist; and moonlight scenes compose some of his most poetic masterpieces.
