The Banks of the River Epte at Giverny (Les Bords de l’Epte à Giverny), painted by Claude Monet in 1887 looks across the still green water of the little Epte to a low flowering bank where slender bare saplings rise against a pale spring sky. A cream farmhouse sits among the trees on the far side, its walls catching the soft morning light that flickers in yellow and rose across the foliage. Painted in the countryside around his new home at Giverny, the canvas shows Monet absorbed in the quiet play of light, water and reflection that would occupy him for the rest of his life.
