The pleasant outdoor scenes shown on the cards of Galison's Monet National Gallery of Art set are suitable for any time you need to write a note. There are four cards each showing details from four of the National Gallery's most popular paintings by visitor favorite Claude Monet: The Artist's Garden in Argenteuil (A Corner of the Garden with Dahlias), 1873; The Bridge at Argenteuil, 1874; The Japanese Footbridge, 1899; and The Artist's Garden at Vetheuil, 1880. All are oil on canvas paintings. The sturdy decorative box holds cards and envelopes neatly, and when the cards have been sent, it's great for storing all sorts of little things--from extra buttons to pearls.
