Water Lilies, Metropolitan Museum W1858hand painted reproduction

Nearly two meters wide, the pool becomes a very dark blue-green surface where turquoise, purple and almost black leaves float. Red flowers appear in small foci, while long light marks fall like willow reflections. The photograph taken in front of the work at the Metropolitan Museum allows us to see its real scale and the density of its late material.

Look at the work

Vertical reflections pass through the floating leaves without revealing any sky or shore

The composition is entirely occupied by water. On the left, high touches of cream and lavender descend between large turquoise blue leaves. Towards the center, the water lilies turn purple and their red contours detach them from the bottom. No horizon sets the distance: depth depends only on superpositions, changes of scale and differences in brightness.

The right half is denser and colder. Deep blues, emerald greens and colorful blacks surround some orange-red flowers. At the bottom, the vertical touches lengthen before meeting a lighter border, left visible in places. This peripheral breathing reminds us that Monet constructs the pelvis in successive layers rather than through a uniformly filled image.

The surface immediately remains aquatic, but each group of leaves can also be read as an autonomous shape placed in an almost abstract field.

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 Water Lilies, Metropolitan Museum W1858 - Claude Monet
01

Modeled circular sheets without continuous outline

Each water lily combines turquoise, purple, blue and green. A thin red or pink accent is sometimes enough to separate the leaf from the water, without drawing a regular border.

02

Clear reflections that fall instead of shimmering

The cream and lavender marks are mainly vertical. They evoke the branches of the willow while organizing luminous intervals between the masses of leaves.

03

A darkness constructed by superimposed colors

The background is never black. Prussian blue, deep green, purple and brown form a dark material in which the red flowers retain their intensity.

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.

Identification01

Met 1983.532, Wildenstein 1858

The Metropolitan Museum dates this oil on canvas from 1916 -1919 and indicates dimensions of 130.2 × 200.7 cm. The work bears the accession number 1983.532 and corresponds to number 1858 of the Wildenstein catalog raisonné.

Late period02

From the observed garden to an almost abstract painting

The Met explains that Monet had his pond dug and planted in 1893. When he undertook this painting at the end of the 1910s, the pond was no longer described as a landscape: it became the starting point for a language fluid, daring and close to abstraction.

Collection03

Gift of Louise Reinhardt Smith in 1983

The museum's credit line identifies the work as a donation by Louise Reinhardt Smith made in 1983. It is now on display at Met Fifth Avenue among European paintings, in the gallery dedicated to Monet and Impressionism.
