1887 Louis Gonse organises a vast exhibition of Japanese art at George Petit’s gallery in Paris; Monet is among those who visit. Further important exhibitions of Japanese art in Paris are held at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in 1890 and by Paul Durand-Ruel in 1893.
1884 Monet visits Bordighera on Italy’s Ligurian coast, where he paints Francesco Moreno’s garden. Start of friendship and correspondence between Monet and the writer, critic and accomplished amateur gardener Octave Mirbeau; from around this time, Mirbeau and Pissarro also correspond.
Caillebotte extends the garden of the house he has owned with his brother Martial at Petit-Gennevilliers since 1881, and begins developments there that include a greenhouse and homes for his gardeners. From 1888 he makes Petit-Gennevilliers his main residence (fig. 112).
1888 The American botanists Nathaniel Lord Britton and Elizabeth Gertrude Knight visit the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew during their honeymoon.

Gartenbau Ausstellung). These are but two of the most ambitious of a succession of garden exhibitions in European cities in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Vincent van Gogh has himself admitted on 8 May to the Saint-Paul-de-Mausol asylum at Saint-Rémy, Provence, on account of his mental instability. Initially, he paints only its garden (fig. 81), writing to his brother Theo on or around 23 May: ‘Since I’ve been here, the neglected garden planted with tall pines under which grows tall and badly tended grass intermingled with various weeds, has provided me with enough work…’.17
1882 The Iris germanica is lauded in Vick’s Illustrated Monthly Magazine: ‘The shades and colours embrace blue, purple, rose, yellow bronze, primrose, violet, crimson, and pure white. The complicated blendings of contrasting and harmonious shades would puzzle an artist beyond measure to reproduce.’ 13 In France, an article on ‘Wild Gardens’ in the Revue horticole recommends the flag iris,14 and in Britain, The Gardener’s Chronicle argues that ‘for beauty of bloom’ the iris ‘may be compared to that of the orchis family’, and that ‘a choice collection of Irises, with the colours properly arranged in beds or groups in the garden or on the lawn, is a very beautiful sight’.15
1900
The Impressionists’ dealer Paul Durand-Ruel mounts an exhibition of their work in New York, effectively launching American interest in Impressionism.
A display of new hybrid water lilies by LatourMarliac at the Exposition Universelle in Paris wins three gold medals. It is thought to have inspired Monet’s creation of his water garden at Giverny, where his water lilies include specimens purchased from Latour-Marliac. The exhibition also includes a Japanese garden. Octave Mirbeau settles at Les Damps, near Pont-de-l’Arche, Eure, where he creates a splendid garden that Pissarro will portray in a series of paintings of 1892 (cats 30 and 31).
1890 Monet purchases Le Pressoir and its 2.37 acres of land at Giverny from his landlords, the Singeots, for 22,000 francs, to be paid in instalments over four years.
1891 The first account of Monet’s garden at Giverny is published in L’Art dans les deux mondes, in Octave Mirbeau’s ‘Claude Monet’ (7 March). Describing the garden through the seasons as a ‘perpetual feast for the eyes’, the article names some 30 different flowers already in cultivation, from irises ‘lifting their strange, recurving petals’, whose undersides evoke ‘mysterious analogies, tempting and perverted dreams’, to ‘vertiginous, flaming, gleaming sunflowers turning their yellow disc-like heads’. Monet’s art is termed a form of ‘growth’ in itself.18 In June, a Japanese gardener visits Monet at Giverny. Edouard Vuillard paints garden sets for Napoléon Roinard’s adaptation of Le Cantique des cantiques (Song of Songs), presented in November at the Théâtre de l’Art in Paris.

Monet marries Alice Hoschedé at Giverny.
Captain Alfred Dreyfus, a French artillery officer of Alsatian-Jewish descent, is convicted of treason and sentenced to life imprisonment for allegedly leaking French military secrets to the German Embassy in Paris.
Alfred Lichtwark, Director of the Hamburg Kunsthalle and advocate of ‘Reform Gardens’, publishes ‘Makartbouquet und Blumenstrauss’ in the Hamburger Weihnachtsbuch, in which he recommends the Bauerngarten (farm or country garden) as a model for the modern garden, and describes showing such a garden to a painter thought to be Max Liebermann. The Bauerngarten’s layout will influence Liebermann’s garden at Wannsee near Berlin, created from 1909 with advice from Lichtwark.
Caillebotte dies on 21 February from a cerebral haemorrhage while painting in his garden at Petit-Gennevilliers. Monet purchases water lilies from LatourMarliac (fig. 39), making further orders from this grower in subsequent years.
1893
1895
Monet acquires a third of an acre of land across the railway tracks from his property at Giverny and petitions for permission to divert water from the Ru (a stream that branches from the River Epte) to construct a water-lily pond (see figs 35 and 36). He also becomes acquainted with Emile Varenne, Director of the Botanical Garden at Rouen, when painting his ‘Rouen Cathedral’ series, and obtains plants and advice from him.
The first of Monet’s water lilies mature and appear as subjects in his paintings.
William Robinson dedicates volume 44 of his journal The Garden to Joseph Bory LatourMarliac, in recognition of the latter’s achievements in hybridising water lilies; it contains a detailed article by Latour-Marliac on this work.
1897 During the summer, Gustav Klimt visits the Tyrol with the Flöge family, and paints his first canvases of orchard and farm (country) gardens in flower. Santiago Rusiñol paints a series of garden paintings in Granada, including views of the Alhambra gardens. A major horticultural exhibition in Hamburg, the Hamburger Allgemeine Gartenbau-Ausstellung, attracts some 500 international entrants to its competitions, and is visited by dignitaries including the King of Siam; a similar exhibition is held in Berlin (the Grosse Allgemeine
An article on Monet at Giverny by the journalist Maurice Guillemot in La Revue illustrée describes ‘models for a decoration for which he has already done some studies … large panels … Imagine a round room, its walls adorned with a water landscape dotted with … plants.’ 19 This is Monet’s first known work towards his ‘Grandes Décorations’ series of murals in the Musée de l’Orangerie, Paris. As owner and editor of the Paris daily newspaper L’Aurore, the French statesman Georges Clemenceau publishes Emile Zola’s vitriolic open letter, ‘J’accuse’, in defence of Alfred Dreyfus, fuelling the Dreyfus Affair, the vehement political and judicial scandal that divided the nation. Monet writes an appreciative letter to Clemenceau.
1899
Monet exhibits fourteen paintings of his water-lily pool at the Galerie Durand-Ruel in December. In the Mercure de France the following February the Symbolist poet Emile Verhaeren claims that they evoke ‘the whole of nature. One intuits the entire garden in this simple display of water and grasses.’ 21 The Exposition Universelle in Paris includes lavish rose gardens, a Japanese garden, and water gardens by Lagrange and LatourMarliac. A Palace of Electricity is also part of the exhibition and proves highly popular.
1901 Monet purchases additional land and receives permission to divert the Ru once again, further to enlarge his water garden (see fig. 37). The pond increases in size by approximately a third, and the work is finished by 1902, enabling him to begin the series of water-lily paintings that will be displayed in his ‘Les Nymphéas: Séries de paysages d’eau’ (‘Water Lilies: Series of Water Landscapes’) exhibition of 1909 (fig. 116). In Wall and Water Gardens (London: Country Life) Gertrude Jekyll praises the picturesque qualities that water lilies lend to a garden: ‘These grand plants enable us to compose a whole series of new pictures of plant beauty of the highest order.’ 22
Monet’s stepdaughter Suzanne Hoschedé dies at Giverny on 6 February. ‘Jardines de España’ (‘Gardens of Spain’), an exhibition in Paris of works by Santiago Rusiñol, is highly successful, bringing the artist international recognition. Dreyfus is convicted with a ten-year sentence at a second trial, but is pardoned. Gertrude Jekyll’s first book, Wood and Garden, is published, describing the creation of her garden at Munstead Wood, Surrey.20 Edouard André creates the first-ever roseraie (dedicated rose-garden) at L’Haÿ-les-Roses, Val de Marne, for Jules Graveraux, rose-lover and senior associate of the Bon Marché department store in Paris; it has some 1,600 specimens. Subsequent roseraies include that at the Bagatelle in the Bois de Boulogne, Paris, created from 1905 by Jean-Claude-Nicolas Forestier, Commissioner of Gardens for the City of Paris and a friend of Monet.
