Monet's veritable artistic testament, these large decorations are the culmination of an entire life. Designed from 1915 until his death (1926), they are inspired by the water garden at the artist's property in Giverny. As of 1886, Monet became more interested in representing his garden according to the rythm of light variations. The eight panels evoke the hours passing, from morning to the East to Sunset in the West.
