The art of Claude Monet epitomises Impressionism. He has been described as the inventor of colourful dreams beyond the visible.

They are among the most famous works of Impressionism and among the most expensive paintings in the world: the 'Nymphéas', which the elderly Claude Monet created in his garden in Giverny.

In the wildly beautiful coastal landscape of Normandy, a small path winds its way to the sea, which one would like to walk on in thought... In his later years, Claude Monet said that he did not paint objects, but the essence of things enveloped in atmosphere and light. And so he was constantly on the lookout for landscapes that offered him not only interesting motifs, but also special lighting conditions. At the beginning of 1882, he was fascinated by the area around the fishing village of Pourville near Dieppe in Normandy, where he set up his relay for a good three months. Here, too, it was the special interplay of landscape and light that inspired him to create a whole series of important works. Original: 1882, oil on canvas, 58.4 x 78.1 cm, Denver Art Museum, USA.

In his later years, Claude Monet said that he did not paint objects, but rather the essence of things enveloped in atmosphere and light. And so he was constantly on the lookout for landscapes that offered him not only interesting motifs, but also special lighting conditions. He travelled to the Netherlands for the first time in 1871. For four months, the artist lived in Zaandam in northern Holland, not far from Amsterdam. He studied the old Dutch masters in the Rijksmuseum. But above all he worked: during his first stay alone, he created 25 of his 42 works with Dutch subjects. With their typical motifs - windmills, canals, tulip fields, etc. - they sometimes create an almost picturesque impression. - With their typical motifs - windmills, canals, tulip fields, etc. - they sometimes make an almost picturesque impression and at the same time clearly show how intensively the artist explored the special lighting conditions of the region.

The picture is a masterpiece of Impressionist painting. In 1906, it brought a work of art to the Stuttgart gallery that was to form the starting point for the important collection of modern art. Monet's artistic credo was to depict the immaterial, pure light by showing its effect on visible things. Only the interaction of thousands of strokes of pure colour forms the composition and conveys the impression of a spring landscape flooded with light. By largely freeing his painting from narrative elements, Monet concentrates the viewer's gaze on the phenomenon of his then revolutionary conception of art.Original: oil on canvas, Staatsgalerie Stuttgart.
