Claude Monet lived for almost forty-three years, from 1883 to 1926, in his house in Giverny. Some of his most famous paintings, such as his water lily and Japanese bridge paintings, were of his garden in Giverny. Giverny sits on the “right Bank” of the River Seine, 80 km (50 miles) from Paris, in the département of Eure, in the région of Haute-Normandie.

The Night Watch, one of the most famous works by Dutch painter Rembrandt van Rijn is the most famous painting in the Rijksmuseum. For much of its existence, the painting was coated with a dark varnish which gave the incorrect impression that it depicted a night scene, leading to the name by which it is now commonly known. This varnish was removed only in the 1940s. This painting was completed in 1642, at the peak of the Dutch Golden Age. It depicts the eponymous company moving out, led by Captain Frans Banning Cocq (dressed in black, with a red sash) and his lieutenant, Willem van Ruytenburch (dressed in yellow, with a white sash).
