Put your money where Monet is
[edit]I.M. no Croisee has a hidden theme about CLAUDE Monet, the impressionist painter, who loved a rich aristocrat girl named CAMILLE Doncieux, but their marriage ended tragically. Monet was avid collector of japanese woodprints, see: http://www.canalacademie.com/ida1672-Claude-Monet-s-Japanese-Print-Collection.html
Monet even painted her wife Camille in an elaborate japanese kimono in 1879: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Claude_Monet-Madame_Monet_en_costume_japonais.jpg
The Croisee mangaka pobably was not ignorant of these connections. Maybe this could be included in the article somehow? 91.82.33.194 (talk) 20:33, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
