Summary

Monet: Water lillies "is lavishly illustrated, but it is more than a coffee-table book. The text traces Monet's career before the water-lily paintings and then provides a comprehensive, in-depth analysis of their form, meaning, and influence." Monet devoted the last twenty-five years of his life to painting the water lilies that floated on the pond of his garden in Giverny. In capturing the reflections on the mirror-like water and the subtle interplay of light, the artist's genius went beyond painting, as he committed such ephemeral subjects to canvas. The Water Lilies brought together in this volume are mirrors of time and have influenced the greatest painters of modern times.
