In 1893, the painter and passionate horticulturist Claude Monet (French, 1840–1926) bought a plot of land with a lake in Giverny. Intending to turn his acquisition into something "for the pleasure of the eye as well as motifs for painting", Monet created an idyllic garden of water lilies, which he painted extensively and experimentally. By the time he began Water Lilies (1916–19), which is under our art umbrella, Monet had achieved a new and bold style that approached the realm of abstract art. Our elegant stick umbrella borrows from this evocative painting from The Met collection.
