Artwork description
Claude Monet · 1914 -1926 · Orangery · INV 20102
Two panels form eight and a half meters of dark water, without horizon, bank or visible sky. Water lilies float in irregular constellations while long green, blue and purple trails give the pool an almost nocturnal depth.

Look at the work
Monet removes all traditional landmarks from the landscape. The gaze meets neither horizon line nor edge of the pond: the oval leaves and flowers placed on the water are the only elements that indicate where the surface is.
The composition becomes denser at the ends and in the lower part. Between these plant clusters, vast blue-green areas remain open. Vertical reflections plunge behind the water lilies and create the impression of water that is both flat and very deep.
Green reflections do not show the garden around the pond: Monet holds the entire landscape in what the water absorbs, overturns and transforms.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.

Dark masses and water lily lines cross the junction. Faithful reproduction must maintain this continuity without erasing the breathing specific to each part.
Water lilies form asymmetrical groups, separated by almost empty areas of water. This irregularity prevents the composition from becoming decorative or repetitive.
Depth comes from temperature changes in dark areas. A uniform green would remove reflections and the impression of transparency.
Details and visual documents
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.


The reference scan was reduced from 8,826 × 2,034 px to 8,000 × 1,844 px; the detail measures 3,600 × 1,800 px and the actual room photograph 5,400 × 2,900 px. No files have been enlarged; all three images are real WebPs.
Documented benchmarks
These facts concern this precise version and are verified from the notice of the institution which keeps it.
Made between 1914 and 1926, Reflets vertes is made up of two oil panels on canvas, joined together and mounted on the wall. The whole measures 200 × 850 cm.
The panel is presented on the ground floor in room 1 of the large decor. The actual photograph shows its curvature, scale and relationship to neighboring compositions.
Monet's donation was approved in 1922. The whole passed administratively through the Luxembourg Museum before final installation at the Orangerie, opened to the public in 1927.

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