Water Lilies is a renowned series of approximately 250 oil paintings by French Impressionism artist Claude Monet (1840–1926). These Flower painting depict his garden at Giverny, capturing the tranquil reflections on the pond’s surface. Created during the last 31 years of his life, many works were painted while Monet suffered from cataracts, which subtly influenced his perception of color and light. The series exemplifies Monet’s mastery in capturing fleeting moments and atmospheric effects, making them some of the most iconic works within the Impressionist movement.
