Description
Claude Monet’s series of water lily paintings were done in his very own backyard. With access to such a gorgeous subject, how could he not create multiple takes on the same lovely flowers? This piece of Water Lilies from 1914 is one of the brightest paintings in this series. It focuses in on a small section of the water lilies, with attention to the movement of the water around the lilies. The result is truly stunning since the swirling colors create an incredible view of the reflections in the water. The use of the warm, glowing yellow tones makes it feel like the entire scene is basking in the sunlight. It is a fascinating scene to watch from any angle.
