克劳德·莫奈，法国画家，被誉为“印象派领导者”，是印象派代表人物和创始人之一。

莫奈是法国最重要的画家之一，印象派的理论和实践大部分都有他的推广。莫奈擅长光与影的实验与表现技法。他最重要的风格是改变了阴影和轮廓线的画法，在莫奈的画作中看不到非常明确的阴影，也看不到突显或平涂式的轮廓线。光和影的色彩描绘是莫奈绘画的最大特色。

Monet is one of the most important French painters. Most of the theories and practices of Impressionism have been promoted by him. Monet is good at experimenting and expressing light and shadow. His most important style is to change the way shadows and contours are drawn. In Monet's paintings, there are no very clear shadows, nor prominent or flat contours. The color depiction of light and shadow is the greatest feature of Monet's paintings.
