s01e02 — Episode 2

I still don't understand what Camille died of. Some sources say it's from tuberculosis, while others say it's from uterine cancer.

The theme of war, visible and invisible scars, responsibility, PTSD, of course, is like a knife to the heart((( until you personally touch it, it's hard to somehow feel everything for real...It's like reading novels, memoirs, they are impressive, but they seem something distant and almost unreal, like a history textbook.
What a beautiful story of writing "St. Lazarus Station", you can't help but look at the image differently, it is really filled with meanings and feelings that were not there before. But I feel sorry for Camilla. It's easy for Monet not to worry about the butcher, because his wife cares about him! It is she who invents and looks for where they can find money, what to eat, how to feed the child((( thanks to this, Monet can not remember this, but dream about the smoke of steam locomotives and how the light falls...One of a Million Reasons Why there are fewer famous women in art. Those individuals who neglected their children and families for the sake of art receive public condemnation, and these facts are replicated again and again. While thousands of similar stories about male artists exist only in some of their biographies, no one is particularly interested and is perceived at most as a small flaw that can be expected from a genius.

It is a pity for Frederick, a young and talented artist, if he had not died so early, he could have become a famous artist.
When I read Monet's biography, I somehow did not delve into Camille's difficult fate, because all the worries about the house lay with her, and also the children. Constant semi-starvation and physical exhaustion clearly did not contribute to the health of the young woman.
The idea of a life-long struggle runs through the entire project. Monet and his friends are fighting for the right to write in their own style, trying to overcome the prevailing stereotypes, to convey their vision of the world. But I can say that I like the paintings of Monet, Manet and Renoir.
