Claude Monet (1840-1926), one of the founders of French Impressionism, is one of the most popular painters in the history of art. In his paintings, he repeatedly focused his gaze upon the shifting phenomena of water, light, and mist. In a dramatically new interpretation of the artist's work, noted Monet scholar Steven Z. Levine, Leslie Clark Professor in the Humanities at Bryn Mawr College, uses the myth of Narcissus to interpret Monet's painting of reflection in water as the mirror of the artist's encounter with himself.Levine, Steven Z. is the author of 'Claude Monet' with ISBN 9780847817856 and ISBN 0847817857.
