L'Enfant a la tasse or L'Enfant a la tasse, portrait de Jean Monet is an oil painting by Impressionist Claude Monet created in 1868. The painting – which features Monet's son Jean sitting next to a white and blue striped cup – is Monet's third painting to feature his son.[1] The painting was first owned by a friend of Monet in Le Havre, who returned it to Monet in 1883. It has been exhibited at the Albertina in Vienna in 2018, as part of a major exhibition of Monet’s body of work. The retrospective was titled “Claude Monet - A Floating World”. Daniel Wildenstein’s Catalogue raisonné, 1996, Vol II mentions this work, under No 131.
