Tuesday, June 30, 2026 - $85.00 - THIS IS A WALKING TOUR - Must have 30 to go

Although Claude Monet visited Venice only once, his paintings of the city are among his most dazzling. This exhibition at the DeYoung Museum, co-organized with the Brooklyn Museum, is the first dedicated to Monet’s Venetian cityscapes since their debut over a century ago. Featuring more than 100 artworks, the exhibition places Monet’s Venice paintings alongside select works from across his career, including his Water Lilies, as well as Venetian views by artists such as Re noir, Sargent, and Canaletto. Unlike the bustling scenes painted by other artists, Monet’s Venice is eerily deserted, its architecture, buildings, and canals dissolving in an encompassing, hazy light he described as the envelope. This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to experience Monet’s vision of the famed Italian city. You will be able to be at the exhibit for 4 hours-The Etruscans-From the Heart of Italy, Boom & Bust-Photographing Northern California & Ross B. Simpson-LEXICON-Pueblo Pottery & Classic Cars.(including time for lunch and browsing/shopping at the gift shop).
