Lovely Water Lilies
image from Metropolitan Museum of Art
Oscar-Claude Monet painted this lovely picture of water lilies. He began painting pictures of water lilies in 1899 and painted more than 200 water lily pictures.
Monet had a beautiful garden, and he painted many pictures of the flowers and plants there. He also had a pond full of lily pads. The job of one of Monet's gardeners was to paddle a boat onto the pond every morning to wash and dust each lily pad.
Monet loved the way the sunlight played on the water and the lily pads.
