Claude Monet was born in Paris in 1840. He spent his youth in Le Havre where he worked as a caricaturist. His early mentor, Boudin, converted him to landscape painting. Monet attended Academie Suisse from 1859 and subsequently enrolled in the studio of Glenyre, where he met Renoir and Sisley. It was with these artists that he formed the Impressionist group. In initiating this group he became the groups leader and in 1874 he organized the first Impressionist exhibit.

A: When the Monet Automatic Umbrella is fully extended, simply press the auto-open-auto-close button to collapse the canopy. You then simply push the top part of the umbrella toward the handle until you hear a click. This action completes the closing of the umbrella and compresses the spring which will then allow you to re-open the canopy with the press of the button. It's very easy to do and doesn't require too much strength.
