Le Bassin aux Nymphéas

Le Bassin aux Nymphéas
Impressionist art, which took place primarily in the 1870s and 1889s, frequently captured sensations and landscapes using light, vivid and pure colors visible brush storks, thick plaint and real life subject matters.

Impressionism was very objective and appears “cold”.

Claude Monet was a famous French impressionist painter and one of the most prominent artists of the time.

Le Bassin Aux Nymphéas is one of the series of water lilies painting by him. It is an oil canvas measuring 100.4 x 201 cm (39.5 x 78.5 in).
