Artwork Details
Water Lilies, Gray Weather (1907, Nymphéas, temps gris) by Claude Monet is one of a small series that he painted in a rare vertical format to capture the spectacular effects of late afternoon light upon his beloved waterlily pond. Overall he created more than sixty views of the aquatic garden that concentrate exclusively on the surface of the pond, without the compositional aid of banks, bridges, or background foliage. Monet began his garden at Giverny in 1893, transforming the marshy ground behind his home into a pond. Adding both exotic and domestic plantings, including his famous water lilies, the artist created the garden that would be one of his principal subjects for the rest of his life.

Framed Art Prints
We offer modern frames intended to complement any art. No glass/glazing is used to showcase paper texture and avoid glare/reflectivity. Smooth paper maintains detail and color; textured paper slightly softens color with a traditional paper finish; and resin coated paper slightly deepens color adding a semi-gloss finish.
Frames are solid wood, ready to hang with kraft paper backing and hanging wire installed.
Giclée Prints
Giclée prints are created on professional inkjet printers using archival quality, acid-free paper or canvas. Unlike a normal inkjet, prints are created using 12 different colors cartridges (cyan, magenta, yellow, black, matte black, light magenta, light cyan, light gray, very light gray, orange, green, and violet) to provide the best possible color reproduction.
Our art prints and canvases maintain the highest possible detail, preserving color, scale, proportions and visual textures, an accurate reproduction of the art.
