Water Lilies is a renowned series of approximately 250 flower painting masterpieces by French Impressionism artist Claude Monet. These paintings vividly capture his water garden at Giverny, reflecting his innovative approach to capturing light and atmosphere. Created during the last 31 years of his life, many works were painted while Monet coped with cataracts, which subtly influenced the color and perception of the scenes. The Water Lilies series exemplifies Monet's mastery in portraying fleeting moments and the natural beauty of his garden, making it a quintessential example of Impressionist flower painting.
