When Monet’s Camille on Her Deathbed was made public, critics were stunned.
Some saw cold detachment—how could he study color at such a moment?
Others hailed it as brutal honesty, where grief and art collide. 💔🎨

Monet didn’t just paint outdoors—he often worked from hotel windows.

Those views gave his art remarkable variety. 🪟

Water Lily Pond - 1917/1919
https://botfrens.com/collections/41/contents/1222153
During World War I, after several years of inactivity because of bad health and grief over the death of his second wife, Claude Monet embarked on a period of intense work. Building a large studio and improving his garden, he began a group of monumental paintings of water lilies that he would later offer to the French state. Alongside this project, he painted a suite of 19 smaller canvases, including the present one. There is evidence—including a few photographs of the artist working in his garden—that Monet conceived these paintings outdoors and then reworked them in his studio. By this last stage of his career, however, the distinction between observation and memory in his work is intangible, and perhaps even irrelevant. Gift of Mrs. Harvey Kaplan

Monet hated giving titles to paintings: “To see, we must forget the name of the things we are looking at,” he said.
