Artwork description
Claude Monet · 1916 -1919 · Marmottan 5125 · W1848
A monumental trunk rises from the lower left edge, crossed by red, orange, purple and blue. To its right, a dark mass of branches and reflections descends on lavender blue water. The pool no longer appears as a horizontal space: it mixes with willow and foliage in a vertical composition two meters high, which remains without signature.

Look at the work
The trunk is off-center to the left and slightly curved. Its black base tightens before spreading upwards, where the keys become lighter. Monet never locks him in a brown silhouette: reds, pinks and oranges emerge between blues and greens, making you feel the bark, the light and the brushwork at the same time.
On the right, the willow extends into a large black-green mass which falls almost to the center. Lavender blue openings appear between the branches, then yellow greens and turquoise occupy the bottom. The limit between the bank, the plants and the water remains deliberately unstable. Only the vertical presence of the trunk gives a firm reference to this moving surface.
The trunk is the last earthly anchor; around it, the water, the foliage and their reflections become the same colored material.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.

The reds and oranges advance, while the blues and purples hollow out the shaded parts. This ratio gives volume without continuous contour.
The large mass on the right contains lavender blue and green breakthroughs. Preserving them prevents the shade from becoming opaque and maintains the link with the pool.
Turquoise, moss green, yellow and dark blue overlap near the base. Reproduction must retain this indecision rather than drawing an invented bank.
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 best public view measures 889 × 1,000 px. The actual photograph of the Water Lilies room measures 2,816 × 2,112 px and the native detail 600 × 750 px. No files have been artificially enlarged; all three media are real decodable WebPs.
Documented benchmarks
These facts concern this precise version and are verified from the notice of the institution which keeps it.
The Marmottan Monet Museum keeps this oil on canvas from 1916 -1919 under number 5125. It measures 200 × 180 cm without frame and corresponds to number 1848 of the Wildenstein catalog raisonné.
The museum notice states that the work is unsigned. Its frame brings the dimensions to 221.5 × 202.5 cm, which gives the composition a presence close to that of large late decorations.
Remaining in the family collection, the painting entered the Marmottan Monet Museum thanks to the legacy of Michel Monet in 1966. Today it belongs to the remarkable collection of Water Lilies and views of the garden preserved by the museum.
