Reproduction details

Claude Monet · 1916 -1919 · Giverny · MDIG D 2021.1.1

Water lilies with willow branches, Giverny W1851hand painted reproduction

Long black branches descend from the upper edge and pass through intense blue water. Water lilies do not form a regular carpet: a few large leaves group together at the bottom, then a lighter curve extends to the right. At 160 × 180 cm, the canvas extends beyond the field with a simple garden view and invites the eye to move without horizon or bank.

Look at the work

The suspended branches give a vertical rhythm to water without a horizon

The top is closed by a dark plant mass, but the branches do not fall like a uniform curtain. Some are short and thick, others extend to the lower edge. Their blacks contain brown, olive green and blue. Between them, large cobalt areas remain visible and make water the true luminous background of the composition.

The bottom leaves are broad, gray green and almost opaque. Further to the right, they become small, spaced and yellow-green. This progression draws a gentle curve from left to right, exactly that highlighted in the museum notice. The orange signature of the lower right edge constitutes one of the rare warm accents in a whole dominated by blue and dark green.

The branches do not frame the pool: they pass through its surface and force the eye to continually pass from the tree to its reflection.

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 with Willow Branches, Giverny W1851 - Claude Monet
01

A blue that is never flat

Cobalt, ultramarine, purple and blue-gray overlap between the branches. These differences must remain visible to give the water its luminous depth.

02

Multi-speed branches

The branches change length, thickness and inclination. Their irregularity creates movement; repeating them as a decorative motif would freeze the canvas.

03

A very open curve of water lilies

The large leaves at the bottom extend into a few smaller discs on the right. This discreet passage constructs the horizontal space in the middle of the verticals.

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.

Cobalt water and the water lily curveOn the right, the branches become spaced apart and the leaves become smaller. Blue light then reaches the surface, while a few acidic greens shift the gaze towards the edge.

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

MDIG D 2021.1.1, Wildenstein 1851

The work is an oil on canvas of 160 × 180 cm dated 1916 -1919. It belongs to the Claude-Monet high school in Paris and is deposited at the Giverny impressionism museum under number MDIG D 2021.1.1.

History of the canvas02

Remained in the workshop then offered by Michel Monet

The painting was still in the workshop when Claude Monet died. His son Michel offered it to the Claude-Monet high school; the establishment deposited it at the Giverny impressionism museum in 2021 so that it could be presented to the public.

A landscape without a fixed point03

Diffuse attention across the entire surface

The museum's notice emphasizes the loss of traditional landmarks: no horizon, no bank and no vanishing point dominate. The branches brush against the water, the water lilies form a curve and the air seems to merge with the pool.

Your reproduction

What the painter must preserve

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

  • The exact Wildenstein 1851 version deposited in Giverny
  • The original format of 160 × 180 cm
  • The variety of length and thickness of the hanging branches
  • The curve of the leaves kept light in the right half
