Jean-Marie Toulgouat
Delightful exhibition at Messums of work by Jean-Marie Toulgouat, Monet’s great-grandson.
Toulgouat lived at Monet’s garden in Giverney which he was instrumental in restoring. The works had shades of Monet but also had a distinct and independent style.
It was interesting to see his style develop from a more abstract linear style, though a freer floral abstract to more realistic scenes. I had a fascinating conversation with the attendant and it was lovely to have such a friendly welcome.
