Monet Bridge Over Lily Pond Impressionist

Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lilies, Claude Monet 1899 Claude Monet's Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lilies is a wonderful impressionistic painting by one of the master flower artists of all time. The bridge and water garden is alive with colour and emotion, as the bridge tops the flowing out of the beautiful water lilies with pink flowers. The water is alive with swirls of brown, green, and purple. The water lilies are an impression -- they're not supposed to be an exact replica of a real water lily. The surge of Monet's colours are inspirational. Claude Monet was one of the great water lily painters -- perhaps the greatest artist of all time. He certainly painted lots of water lilies - and this painting is one he did often -- the bridge from his garden at Giverny. Claude Monet was considered the founder of French Impressionist painting. He studied the “en plein air” methods of painting, along with Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Frederic Bazille, and Alfred Sisley.
