In February Monet, Seurat, Pissarro, Gauguin and Rodin appeared as guest artists at the annual exhibition held by the group Les XX in Brussels. A long article on Monet appears in the March 3 edition of Gil Blas, in which Monet reports his “chief artistic concern is the ‘envelope’ of pulsating, coloured light, more than the solid physical facts of landscape”.
