Monet: "Il colore è la mia ossessione.."

"Questi paesaggi d'acqua e di riflessi sono diventati un'ossessione. E' al di là delle mie forze di persona anziana… non dormo più per colpa loro… Mi alzo la mattina rotto di fatica… dipingere è così difficile e torturante. Ce n'è abbastanza da far perdere la speranza. Ciò nonostante non vorrei morire prima di aver detto quello che avevo da dire; o almeno aver tentato di dirlo. I miei giorni sono contati… Domani forse"… - Claude Monet, lettera dell'11 agosto 1908 al suo amico Gustave Geffroy
