Biography Post
Claude Monet was born on November 14, 1840 in Paris, France. But in 1845, his family moved to Normandy.
Claude showed great artistic talent early on, drawing caricatures of his teachers and fellow students at school rather than completing his lessons. In fact, he became famous in his hometown for his caricature drawings, which he sold to local residents.
