The Chronicle of Impressionism: An Intimate Diary of the Lives and World of the Great Artists

When Monet falls and injures his leg, young Frdddric Bazille entertains the sufferer by painting his portrait in bed; when Monet is penniless and his mistress pregnant, Bazille buys a painting out of charity. But Bazille dies in the Franco-Prussian War, while Monet lives on to become a great master and to enjoy a productive old age lasting well into the 20th century.
