Nymphaea (Water Lilies) by Claude Monet

Nymphaea (Water Lilies) by Claude Monet

Monet lived for a long time in such a need that there was no money for bread or paint, and sometimes he could not finish the canvas.

His last works – 14 large decorative panels “Nymphea”, on which Monet worked since 1918 – he bequeathed to the state as a gift: landscapes with shimmering waters, lilies, silvery willows and their shaky reflections fill the space of the two oval halls of the Louvre’s Orangery.
