I enjoyed this graphic novel telling the story of French painter Claude Monet. That this book was created by a team of a screenwriter and an artist really shows: the panels are all rendered in full color illustration style (not comic book line art) and the story line is shown/told cinematically. I especially like the appendix which shows the famous Monet paintings that were used as reference and inspiration. Here's a comic book both high- and low-brow readers will love.
