Rochard Framed Monet Footbridge Painting Limoges Box
Monet's Japanese footbridge, the famous arched bridge over his water lily pond, appears in a little frame on this Rochard Limoges box, with a removable artist's palette alongside. It was hand-painted in Limoges, France, a tribute to the master of Impressionism.
The Garden at Giverny
Claude Monet spent decades painting his garden at Giverny in Normandy, returning again and again to the green bridge and the lilies floating below. Those canvases now hang in the world's great museums. This box brings one of his favorite subjects home in porcelain.

For the Museum Lover
Set it on a bookcase beside an art book, on a studio shelf or on a desk. It makes a lovely present for a painter, a museum member, an art history graduate, a gardener with a lily pond, or someone just back from a trip to Giverny. It also suits a teacher who brings art into the classroom.
Painted Like a Painting
Many Limoges boxes are hand-painted after the white porcelain has been fired, so a Monet box is in a real sense a small painting of a painting. That gives it a special charm on an art lover's shelf.
