After several years, and many successful Impressionist exhibitions in Paris, Giverny began to attract a number of international visitors, who came in search of the great figurehead of the movement, Monet. Many American artists hoping to deepen their understanding of Impressionism visited the small hamlet, and although Monet did not take on any students, he enjoyed close relationships with several of these figures, including John Leslie Breck, Louis Ritman (the present lot) and Theodore Earl Butler. Indeed, Butler would go on to marry Monet’s stepdaughter Suzanne in 1892, cementing his connection to the family.
