The Water Lily Basin, green reflectionshand painted reproduction

More than four meters wide, the pool fills the entire field: no bank, no distinct sky, only columns of green and blue reflections crossed by white, yellow, pink and red water lilies.

Look at the work

A panorama without horizon where water contains the entire garden

The long upper band concentrates light leaves and flowers, but it does not form a stable bank. It floats in front of olive green, turquoise and dark blue reflections. Further down, the long vertical touches suggest the trees and the sky overturned in the water without ever directly describing them.

Water lilies are divided into very unequal groups. Isolated red flowers punctuate the sides; a denser archipelago extends to the upper center; in the lower part, the leaves disperse and allow large passages of reflection to breathe. This rhythm prevents the panoramic format from becoming decorative or repetitive.

The gaze no longer crosses a landscape: it oscillates between the surface covered with flowers and the vertical depth of reflections, without finding a horizon line to fixate on.

Composition, touch and light

What Monet builds behind the impression of snapshot

Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.

Analysis of The Water Lilies Basin, green reflections - Claude Monet
01

Vertical reflections under a horizontal surface

The long touches that descend into the water give depth, while the leaves are placed in small horizontal units. Their confrontation organizes the entire panel.

02

Deliberately asymmetrical groups of flowers

The reds are not distributed regularly. Their rarity and deviations give tension to the large format and lead the eye from one edge to the other.

03

An open center rather than a central motif

The middle of the panel is less loaded than its upper margins. This breathing must remain visible in the reproduction in order to preserve the immersive scale of the work.

Details and visual documents

Observe the material and the exact version

The additional images show the difficult-to-read passages in the full view and, where it exists, the actual appearance of the work at the museum.

Light water lilies and red accents on the left - detail of Le Bassin aux nymphéas, green reflections - Claude Monet
Light water lilies and red accents on the leftThis detail brings the small cream and yellow leaves closer to emerald green reflections. The red flowers, few in number, stand out thanks to their warmth rather than a closed outline.
Pink flowers and blue depth on the right - detail of Le Bassin aux nymphéas, green reflections - Claude Monet
Pink flowers and blue depth on the rightThe right half mixes denser pink groups with long blue-green flows. The vertical touches remain visible between the leaves and give the impression of very deep water.

The official view published by the Bührle Collection measures 2400 × 1118 px. The two details each measure 1250 × 930 px and come directly from this specific panel. No files have been enlarged; all three images are in WebP.

Documented benchmarks

Three pieces of information specific to this work

These facts concern this precise version and are verified from the notice of the institution which keeps it.

Dimensions01

A panel measuring two meters by four meters twenty-five

The Bührle Foundation keeps this oil on canvas measuring 200 × 425 cm under inventory number 73. A workshop stamp appears on the chassis; the Wildenstein catalog lists it under number 1979.

Great Decorations02

One of the twenty two-meter panels remaining in Giverny

The foundation's instructions specify that this canvas belongs to a group of twenty panels two meters high which were not selected for the definitive installation of the Water Lilies at the Orangery.

Provenance03

From Monet's workshop to the Bührle collection

After 1926, the painting returned to Michel Monet. Emil Bührle acquired it during the Monet exhibition at the Kunsthaus Zürich in May 1952; his heirs gave it to the foundation in 1960.

Your reproduction

What the painter must preserve

Fidelity here depends on precise relationships between light, touch, depth and color temperature.

  • The alternation between vertical touches of reflection and horizontal sheets
  • The isolated reds which punctuate the 4.25 meters of the panel
  • Less heavy breathing in the center
  • Transitions from olive green to turquoise and deep blue

Presentation in your interior

A palette designed with the room

This very panoramic composition requires a wide and open wall. Its greens, blues and pinks create an enveloping atmosphere in a living room, dining room or reception area, with continuous and soft lighting across the entire width.
