By Claude Monet (1840-1926), in a Private CollectionRapid loops of paint, augmented by rough patches, curls and flecks of color borrow the gleam of reflected clouds to unfold into the splendor of waterlilies that have made Monet''s beloved obsession world renown. Inspired by his collection of Japanese prints, Monet created a water garden in his home in Giverny, France, that was to become a work of art in and of itself and the muse for this masterpiece in particular. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work''s texture, depth of color, and even its bold brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. The imported, delicately carved hardwood frame boasts a delicate leaf motif with fine feathered detailing finished in antique gold tones. Medium: 28"Wx28"H.
