Western Painting Claude Monet (November 14, 1840 December 5, 1926), a French painter known as the "leader of Impressionism", was one of the representatives and founders of Impressionism.

Monet was one of the most important French painters, and much of the theory and practice of Impressionism was promoted by him. Monet excelled in experimenting with light and shadow and expressive techniques. His most important style is the alteration of shadows and contours, in which there are no very clear shadows, nor protruding or flattened contours.

The color depiction of light and shadow is the greatest feature of Monet's paintings.

Van Gogh worked in grey and dark colors in his early days, until he met the Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists in Paris, incorporating their bright colors and styles to create his own unique style. Most of his most famous works were painted in the last two years of his life, during which Van Gogh suffered from a deep mental illness that led him to suicide at the age of 37. After Van Gogh's death, Van Gogh's works, such as "Starry Night", "Sunflowers" and "Wheat Field with Crows", have become among the most famous and precious works of art in the world.

Van Gogh's works are currently housed at the Musée d'Orsay in France and the Kunshaus in Zurich.

Jean-François Millet (1814-1875) was one of France's most prominent realist painters of the 19th century, known for his representation of peasant subjects, and a French Barbizon painter. He is famous in the French painting world for his touching humanity in rural paintings. Millet was France's greatest pastoral painter.

It is customary to call him Miller, but it should be translated as "rice leaf" according to the French pronunciation. Miller's works mainly depict the labor and life of farmers, and he observes nature with fresh eyes, which has a strong atmosphere of rural life.

Romain Rolland pointed out in his biography of Miller: "Miller, the old master who poured all his spirit into the meaning of eternity more than the moment, has never been a painter who has given such a majestic and great feeling and expression to the earth to which all things belong."

Personally, I also like Berthe Moriso, Heathley, etc.
