The star setting of Emily in Paris: Claude Monet’s house in Giverny (France)
On August 15, the first part of the fourth season of Emily in Paris premiered and with it we were able to see Emily and Camille in one of the most idyllic settings in all of France. A place with a lot of history, but, above all, art. The location, which appears in the second chapter of the Netflix series starring Lily Collinswas the residence for the last forty years of the most representative painter and undisputed pillar of Impressionism: Claude Monet (Paris, 1840 – Giverny, 1926).
In the second chapter, when Emily is searching for Camille, we see her arrive at the entrance of a country house with a pink facade, turquoise windows and a garden full of flowers. This location, which feels (literally) like stepping into a Monet painting, was his home and the source of creation and inspiration for much of his artistic work from 1833 until his death. This house is located in the French town of Giverny (not far from Paris) and, just like the characters in Emily in Paris, it can be visited.
Emily guides us through the interior of Monet’s house as she continues her search for Camille. She passes through a kitchen with walls full of blue earthenware tiles and a very representative yellow dining room until she reaches one of the most impressive areas of what was the artist’s home: the garden full of flowers and a pond with water lilies where the painter spent countless hours painting. A picture of peace and reverie that inspired Monet to create his work The Japanese bridge (1899). In this house Monet made many other of his paintings such as the series of The Water Lilies.
Let’s delve into the house that ended up becoming the artist’s retreat to devote himself to painting and which is now one of the most impressive settings for this Netflix series.
