Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

NO ONE does shimmering light like Monet; and no light shimmers like that of Venice. The combination of the two is almost too much. Venice has defeated most attempts to capture it, whether on film, in words, or on canvas. Judge for yourself if Monet got it right - above, Saint-Georges Majeur (1908), the classic view of San Giorgio from San Marco - at the National Museum of Wales's Impressions of Venice from Turner to Monet. Amgueddfa'r Gogledd, Llanberis (0286-870636), Sat to 20 Sept; National Museum of Wales, Cardiff (0222-397951), 3 Oct to 15 Nov.
