S.T. DUPONT Line D Large Monet "Impression, Sunrise" Limited Edition 14K Fountain Pen


S.T. Dupont pays tribute to one of the most influential artists of the 20th century ─ Claude Monet (1840-1926), widely regarded as the founder of the French Impressionist movement.

Monet’s masterpiece, "Impression, Sunrise" (Impression, Soleil Levant), made its debut in Paris at an exhibition that would later be known as the "Exhibition of the Impressionists." Painted in just a few short hours, the artwork surprised viewers with its unconventional and groundbreaking technique.

Believing that most people would never have the chance to see the port of Le Havre with their own eyes, Monet titled the painting "Impression." Originally a technical term used by mid-century painters, "Impression" reflected a growing interest among landscape artists in capturing the atmosphere or feeling of a scene, rather than meticulously documenting nature. From then on, the word became synonymous with Monet and his circle. Today, "Impression, Sunrise" stands as the ultimate symbol of the Impressionist movement.

The original painting is currently preserved in Paris at the Musée Marmottan Monet ─ the legendary museum housing the world's largest collection of Claude Monet's works. Considered the dawn of Impressionism, "Impression, Sunrise" was painted on November 13, 1872. Remarkably, 1872 was also the exact year Simon Tissot-Dupont founded S.T. Dupont. At just 25 years old, Simon Tissot-Dupont was a visionary artisan who, much like Monet, immersed himself in the profound creativity and innovation of that era.

To celebrate this iconic artwork, S.T. Dupont has launched a special limited edition collection honoring "Impression, Sunrise," showcasing the brand's master-level natural lacquer craftsmanship.
