Water lilies 1930

"Water Lilies" (1930) by Hélène Guinepied (1883-1937) is a watercolor painting that captures the serene beauty of a pond covered in lily pads. The artist uses a vibrant palette of blues and greens to depict the water lilies, with the blue hues being used to define the form of the lily pads and the greens used for the leaves. The scene is set against a background of dark foliage and reeds, adding to the sense of depth and perspective in the work. This painting exemplifies Guinepied's skill in capturing the beauty of nature through her delicate brushstrokes and masterful use of color.
