Water Lilies is a series of paintings by Claude Monet, one of the key figures of the Impressionism art movement. Created between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these paintings depict Monet's garden at Giverny, specifically the water lily pond and its surroundings. The series is characterized by its focus on capturing the play of light, color, and reflections on the water's surface, as well as the delicate beauty of the water lilies and other plants. Monet's use of loose brushwork and vibrant colors creates an immersive and dreamlike atmosphere, emphasizing the sensory experience of being in nature. Water Lilies exemplifies the Impressionists' fascination with capturing the fleeting and ever-changing qualities of light and the natural world.
