A Rare Claude Monet Painting Goes On Display

A very rarely-seen Claude Monet painting seen in public only once in the past 80 years has gone on show in London. The painting, Le Bassin Aux Nympheas, is one of four pieces from the impressionist's waterlily series and will be put under the hammer on 24th at the Christie's auction house expecting to fetch around £18m and £24m, a record for a Monet art work.
