In 1903 Monet embarked on a series of canvases depicting the water garden at his home in Giverny. In the paintings reproduced in this boxed notecard assortment, scattered lily pads suggest the waters surface, receding into space. The pattern of light and dark beneath the lilies suggests the reflection on the water-sky and the trees on a distant bank. When Monet exhibited 48 of his waterscapes in 1909, critics compared them to poetry and music.
