The author of Water Lily is French painter claude monet, a representative of Impressionism and one of its founders. This series is Monet's later mature works. From 19 14 to 19 17, about 60 paintings were created, and then a lot of modifications were made. It's a large group painting. "Water lily" is gray from a distance, but it is full of color from a close distance. The better a person's sense of color, the more colors he sees.
In those poor days, the lotus pond in the garden became the last sustenance of Monet's artistic pursuit. He painted a group painting of Water Lily with great enthusiasm, which confirmed Monet's tenacious vitality. In this colorful world composed of strong colors, water lilies have become the magical carrier of colors, and those short lives are eternal. He used water to express the colors of nature rather than water lilies.
The critic Vadoy commented on Water Lily: "None of his early paintings can compare with these incredible water features, because they caught the spring and left it in the world. The water in the picture is light blue, sometimes like a golden solution. On the unpredictable green water surface, the sky and the shore of the pond are reflected, and the light and bright water lilies bloom on these reflections. There is an inherent beauty in these paintings, which combines modeling with ideals and makes his paintings closer to music and poetry. "
