Claire Joyes is a French author and historian known for her works on Claude Monet and his life at Giverny. She has written multiple books about Monet, often focusing on his personal life, home, and culinary interests. Monet’s Table: The Cooking Journals of Claude Monet is one of her most well-known books. Claude Monet, one of the most influential painters of modern times, spent half his life in the famous house at Giverny. After moving there in 1883 with his wife, Alice Hoschedé, and their eight children, Monet's work finally gained recognition. His growing success allowed him to indulge his passion for comfort and fine living. Family meals, festive celebrations, luncheons with friends, and countryside picnics all reflected the Monets' love of good food. Just as Monet drew inspiration for his paintings from his beloved gardens and the surrounding Normandy landscape, the meals served at Giverny were crafted from superb ingredients sourced from the kitchen garden, a masterpiece in itself, as well as the farmyard and the French countryside.
