A Brief History
Monet died on 5 12月 1926, leaving the property and art housed therein to his only surviving son Michel Monet. Michel was not, しかしながら, interested in the family residence, and so Blanche Monet Hoschedé, Alice’s daughter and widow of Monet’s elder son Jean, took care of the house and garden. When Blanche died in 1947, the house and gardens were all but abandoned.

Michel Monet died in 1966, leaving the property and collections to the Académie des Beaux Arts. Funds did not allow for any much needed restoration. The roof was repaired so as to protect the ‘Japanese Estampes’, and the remaining art was removed to the Musée Marmottan in Paris.

で 1977 the Académie des Beaux Arts hands over the restoration of Monet’s house and garden in Giverny to Gérald Van der Kemp, famed for his restoration at the Château de Versailles. After three years of extensive renovations to both the garden and the house and the founding of the 財団のクロードモネ, the property is opened to the public on 1st of June.
