Claude Monet’s first visit to Venice in his late 60s inspired the paintings behind the de Young Museum’s spring 2026 exhibition, “Monet in Venice.” Opening at the de Young Museum on Saturday, March 21 as a collaboration with the Brooklyn Museum, the collection of works showcases prominent themes of renewal following Monet’s 1908 visit to Venice. At the core of the exhibition resides de Young’s former director of curatorial affairs, Melissa Buron, as co-curator. “When I left San Francisco a couple years ago, I absolutely left part of my heart here, and part of that was in this exhibition,” Buron said. “When you’re working on an exhibition, it becomes part of your family.” The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco are no strangers to housing Monet’s work. Various Monet-centric exhibitions around the world have made their way through museums throughout the years in a continual tribute to the legendary painter. 🔗 Read full story at link in bio. ✍️: Ozzy Palacio (animalcrackerwhore) 📸...
