"Water Lilies" (Claude Monet)

"Water Lilies" by Claude Monet is a series of Impressionist paintings capturing the tranquil beauty of his garden pond in Giverny. Monet focuses on the reflective surface of the water, adorned with floating water lilies, capturing the changing light, colors, and atmosphere of different times of day and seasons. His brushwork emphasizes the play of light and color over detailed forms, creating a sense of depth and movement. The series invites viewers to experience the peacefulness and natural beauty of the scene, emphasizing mood and perception rather than precise realism.
