He was considered a controversial artist for his way of portraying the Parisian life. He was criticised for many paintings such as: Olympia, the railway, argenteuil and the boating. Most artist of the era went along with the classical types of paintings that focused on mythological stories or heroic figures. Monèt and his colleague Manet did several paintings for the Salon which was an art exhibition of the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris. This Academy decided what was acceptable or good at the time, so when artist like Manet and Monét tried to implement new techniques and tried to represent a tone of freshness in their canvas they were then considered a threat to the conservative community. Both men paved the way for modern artist who focused on form and light more than just common realism this is why they were considered the greatest and the most controversial at the moment.
