Highlighting masterworks from a diverse global art collection, this volume commemorates the Denver Art Museum's renovated campus. Established in 1893, the museum features around 70,000 works that span cultures from the Americas, Africa, Asia, Europe, and Oceania, reflecting artistic heritage from ancient times to the present. It also showcases regional artists and offers educational opportunities for the community, all within architecturally significant buildings designed by Daniel Libeskind and Gio Ponti.

Claude Monet bol maliarom jasného denného svetla, maliarom neba, snehu, mrakov. Bol prvým maliarom, ktorý maľoval takmer jednofarebne biele obrazy. Je slávnym predstaviteľom impresionizmu. Obraz Dojem (Impresia) – Východ slnka – ranná nálada v prístave LeHavre dala dokonca novému hnutiu meno.
