However, he soon began working with enthusiasm on views of Venice, which were later celebrated by critics as “colorful, brilliant holidays.” In their daily correspondence, the couple gave accounts of their travels. While Claude Monet wrote to friends and dealers, Alice primarily wrote intimate letters to their daughter Germaine Salerou in which she described her husband’s work on his Venice cycle, which remains extremely popular to this day. Her personal lines capture the atmosphere of the city and the deep impression it made upon her during their ten-week stay.\u003cBR\u003eThe letters in this volume have been selected by Philippe Piguet, Germaine Salerou’s grandchild. Supplemented by historical photographs, they provide a vivid reflection of a great artist’s encounter with the Queen of the Adriatic and are unique testimonies to twentieth-century art.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; DISPLAY: none; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-hide: all\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49811845185800,"sku":"9783775722643","price":9.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775722643_b501abf3-6a3c-4d61-a422-6f96853101c0.jpg?v=1744055604","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16050-die-geschichte-einer-reise","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
