## Image Caption

An 1869 oil on canvas, *La Grenouilère* (aka *Bathers at La Grenouilière*), by [Claude Monet](https://www.worldhistory.org/Claude_Monet/) (1840-1926), the French impressionist painter. A popular weekend spot on the Seine, Monet worked here with [Pierre-Auguste Renoir](https://www.worldhistory.org/Pierre-Auguste_Renoir/) (1841-1919). The floating café was called La Grenouilière. This is one of the works art historians consider the beginning of the [impressionism](https://www.worldhistory.org/Impressionism/) movement. (Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
