Water Lilies (Nymphéas) by Claude Monet

Water Lilies (Nymphéas), painted by Claude Monet drifts across the surface of the artist’s beloved lily pond at Giverny, where clusters of violet and purple pads carry luminous white and yellow blossoms over deep green water. Passages of blue sky and cloud shimmer in the reflections, dissolving the boundary between water, light and air in Monet’s signature late manner. The Nymphéas series occupied Monet for the final three decades of his life, transforming his Giverny water garden into one of the most celebrated meditations on color and light in all of modern art.

Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926).
