Born in Giverny in 1928, Jean-Marie Toulgouat grew up surrounded by Impressionist masterpieces and beautiful gardens. The great-grandson of Claude Monet (by marriage), he returned to Giverny in the 1960s, and was closely involved in the restoration of Monet’s gardens.
Toulgouat created his own distinctive oeuvre of vibrantly coloured oil paintings of the gardens at Giverny, capturing his personal relationship with the land.
This exhibition of Toulgouat's paintings at the Garden Museum is presented in collaboration with David Messum Fine Art.
