Water Lilies

Description

Discover the serene beauty of nature with Jitterbug’s fine art wallpaper murals, inspired by Monet’s timeless masterpieces. Claude Monet created paintings of the garden at his Giverny home from 1897 to 1926. These timeless works, centered around water lilies, replaced the varied subjects of his earlier career. Monet’s beloved flower garden, featuring a water garden and a Japanese footbridge, became the focal point of these paintings. In his initial water-lily series (1897–99), Monet depicted the pond environment with a clear horizon line, including plants, the bridge, and trees. Over time, he moved away from traditional pictorial space. By the time he painted Water Lilies, part of his third series, he had eliminated the horizon line, focusing instead on the pond’s surface. This spatially ambiguous canvas shows clusters of vegetation floating among the reflections of the sky and trees, transforming a horizontal surface into a vertical image.
