Jean Monet (August 8, 1867 – February 10, 1914) was the eldest son of French Impressionist artist Claude Monet and Camille Doncieux Monet and the brother of Michel Monet. He was the subject of several paintings by his father and married his step-sister, Blanche Hoschedé. ==Early life== Jean Monet was born to Camille Doncieux and Claude Monet on August 8, 1867. During that summer Claude Monet had been in Sainte-Andresse, where he visited his aunt Sophie Lecadre and father Claude Monet. Camille, who received Monet for the birth and several days afterwards, was in Paris. The first portrait that Monet made of his son was of the four-month-old ''Jean Monet in His Cradle''. Alongside Jean was a woman Julie Vellay, a companion Camille Pissaro, rather than his mother.〔 According to Mary Mathews Gedo, author of ''Monet and his Muse: Camile Monet in the Artist's Life:'' ::The identification of Jean's attendant as someone other than his mother seems entirely consistent with what would prove to be Monet's future insistence on depicting Camille as 'unmother'. Mother and son were only shown in the same physical space in one painting during the Argenteuil years by Monet, ''The Luncheon''. In 1868, after having left Paris to escape creditors and find more affordable housing, the three moved to Gloton, a small scenic village near Bennecourt. They were thrown out of the inn they were staying in for non-payment. Camille and Jean were able to stay with someone in the country, while Monet tried to obtain monies for survival. However, without money for a medical treatment, Jean became quite ill. After a dramatic period experienced by Camille and Jean, Claude was able to obtain funds for housing for his family in Le Havre. His parents were married on June 28, 1870.〔 When Jean was a young child his mother and father had fled France during the Franco-Prussian War. They returned by the summer of 1872 when Claude painted his five-year-old son on a hobby horse in the garden of the home the family rented in Argenteuil near Paris. Claude Monet kept the painting, and never exhibited it, throughout his life.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Jean Monet on His Hobby Horse, 1872 )〕 File:Claude Monet, Jean-Monet-in-His-Cradle.jpg|''Jean Monet in His Cradle,'' of the baby with Julie Vellay File:Claude Monet - The Luncheon - Google Art Project.jpg|''The Luncheon'', Camille Doncieux and Jean Monet File:Claude Monet - Jean Monet on his Hobby Horse.jpg|''Jean Monet on his Hobby Horse,'' 1872, Metropolitan Museum of Art 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jean Monet (son of Claude Monet)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
