About This Event

The Arts Society River Colne will host a talk on 20 October 2026 at Firstsite in Colchester, exploring the influence of Katsushika Hokusai's landscapes on Claude Monet's artistic approach. The event will examine how Hokusai's work transformed Monet's perception of art and nature. Tickets are available at a price range of free to £9.38.

Explore how Katsushika Hokusai's innovative landscapes influenced Claude Monet, transforming his approach to art and nature.

This talk looks at the affinities between Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849) and Claude Monet (1840-

1926) as a way to look at their famous works through a different perspective. Hokusai never knew

Monet, but Monet knew Hokusai through his work and was transformed by the older artist's

images of nature. We'll first introduce the innovative landscapes of Hokusai and what made them

distinct for the time. We'll then see how Monet got his hands on the work of Hokusai and how it

forever impacted his approach to making art.
