Water Lilies (Agapanthus), c. 1915-26. Creator: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926)
Water Lilies (Agapanthus), c. 1915-26. Monet spent the last thirty years of his life painting the lily pond at his home in Giverny, a small town on the river Seine, just north of Paris. While his initial exploration of the water lily theme (1902-8) produced smaller works more descriptive of a garden setting, the later paintings focus on the waters shimmering surface, indicating the surrounding trees and lush bank only through reflections. Here reflection and reality merge in strokes of blue, violet, and green. Fronds of water plants sway underwater and passing clouds are reflected above. By 1915 Monet had conceived a plan, called his Grande Decoration, for arranging a series of monumental water lily paintings in an oval room, thus creating a continuous panorama that would surround and enclose the viewer in an environment of pure colour. That installation is located in two oval rooms in the Musee de lOrangerie in Paris. Clevelands painting is the left panel of a three-part variation on this water lily theme. Its companions are now in the St. Louis Art Museum and the Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City, Missouri

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Claude Monet's masterpiece, "Water Lilies (Agapanthus), c. 1915-26". Throughout the last three decades of his life, Monet dedicated himself to capturing the serene beauty of the lily pond at his home in Giverny, France. Initially focusing on smaller works that depicted a garden setting, he later shifted his attention to exploring the shimmering surface of the water and its reflections. In this particular painting, strokes of blue, violet, and green seamlessly merge reflection with reality. The fronds of water plants sway gracefully underwater while passing clouds are mirrored above. By 1915, Monet conceived an ambitious plan known as his Grande Decoration - a series of monumental water lily paintings arranged in an oval room to envelop viewers in a world saturated with pure color. This installation can be found today in two oval rooms at the Musee de l'Orangerie in Paris. The print featured here is part of a three-part variation on Monet's iconic water lily theme. Its companions reside at the St. Louis Art Museum and the Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City, Missouri respectively. With its vibrant hues and ethereal atmosphere, this artwork invites us into Monet's enchanting world where nature and art intertwine harmoniously.
