Monet’s Water-Lily Pond: A Mindful Impression of Peace | National Gallery
Amongst the most iconic masterpieces in Western modern art, Claude Monet’s water lily paintings came about from a ‘revelation of the enchantment of [his] pond.’ Monet created a series of over 250 of these paintings, capturing the everchanging light at many different times of day, over three decades. Four of these are in the National Gallery’s collection.
Curator Chiara di Stefano gives us a close look at one of these pictures, ’The Water-Lily Pond’. It evokes silence and a dreamlike quality, with peaceful and calm, still waters. She shows us in this film how Monet’s series of pictures is not about transience, but permanence.
Claude Monet’s ’The Water-Lily Pond’ is currently on loan to York Art Gallery.
To celebrate our Bicentenary, 12 paintings from the collection are being lent to 12 venues across the UK. See various locations and visit:
