More about this artwork

Claude Monet's painting "Water Lilies" captures the essence of peaceful reflection and the transient beauty of nature. A masterpiece of French Impressionism, this work was painted in 1906 and forms part of Monet’s celebrated water lilies series, inspired by his own garden in Giverny.In this serene composition, Monet explores the interplay between light and water, using vibrant strokes and a rich palette to create the pond surface, alive with floating lilies and reflecting the sky above. The brushwork is loose and fluid, allowing colors to blend directly on the canvas, which suggests the movement of water and foliage. Shades of blues, purples, and greens dominate the scene, punctuated by the pink and white blooms of the water lilies which draw the viewer’s eye.Monet’s fascination with natural light and its effects on the natural world is evident here as he captures the fluctuating appearance of the pond at different times of the day.

Oscar-Claude Monet was a founder of French Impressionist painting, and the most consistent and prolific practitioner of the movement's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature. Monet's ambition of documenting the French countryside led him to adopt a method of painting the same scene many times in order to capture the changing of light and the passing of the seasons. From 1883 Monet lived in Giverny, where he purchased a house and property, and began a vast landscaping project which included lily ponds that would become the subjects of his best-known works. In 1899 he began painting the water lilies, first in vertical views with a Japanese bridge as a central feature, and later in the series of large-scale paintings that was to occupy him continuously for the next 20 years of his life.
