As always when making a purchase without being able to actually see something in real life, there is a gamble involved, and this was one costly gamble in which I was the loser. On site this looks like a beautiful reproduction of Monet's but in real life it is a poor attempt to reproduce art. This was not painted by a professional artist, but perhaps by a person just beginning to learn how to paint using a picture as a guide to paint over giving this end product. Please don't waste your hard earned money as I did, go somewhere where you are able to see the quality of workmanship before you spend your hard earned money.

• Did the color match the color displayed onsite? much much brighter than shown
• How is the quality of the product? looks like a child painted this - very poorly done
• Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? it is hand painted- but looks like paint by numbers done by a child

I absolutely love my Monet, and plan to buy more of these for my house.
