Ninféias (Waterlilies) - Claude Monet
National Museum of Wales, Cardiff, País de Gales
OST - 100x81 - 1908
When this work and forty-seven other Monet paintings of
waterlilies (nymphéas) were first exhibited in 1909 an enthusiastic critic
proclaimed: 'Here, more than ever before, painting approaches music and poetry.
There is in these paintings an inner beauty, refined and pervasive; the beauty
of a play and of a concert, a beauty that is both plastic and ideal.' This is
the most delicately-coloured and abstract-looking of the three Monet Nymphéas
purchased by Gwendoline Davies at Paris in 1913.
