Did you know?
Claude Monet famously dedicated the latter part of his life to painting his garden at Giverny, producing over 250 oil paintings of his water lily pond and the Japanese bridge. These series, often bordering on abstraction as his eyesight deteriorated, capture the changing light and seasons, making his garden a deeply personal and inexhaustible source of artistic inspiration. The works are celebrated for their revolutionary use of color and texture, pushing the boundaries of Impressionism.
