Water Lilies 1915

Claude Monet’s “Water Lilies” (1915) is a prime example of Impressionism, characterized by loose brushstrokes and a focus on capturing the fleeting effects of light. The painting depicts the water lilies in Monet’s garden pond at Giverny, showcasing the interplay of light and water as it reflects off the pond’s surface. The artist’s interest in capturing the ephemeral beauty of nature is evident in his depiction of the water lilies, which appear to be gently swaying in the breeze.
