A City “Too Beautiful to Be Painted”
Monet swore he’d never visit to Venice; never paint Venice. He feared that the city’s clichéd, heavily depicted and overly romanticized scenery would make it impossible for him to capture its look in his own artistic style. His wife Alice lured him; Venice worked her charms and seduced him. Lucky for us.
