				Monet devoted 25 years of his life to painting the water lilies of the "water garden" of Giverny where he lived until the end of his life.
By the scope, the originality of its approach and its layout, Monet, les Nymphéas, is intended for both the amateur and the specialist.
This book proposes different approaches.
A first biographical text by Denis Rouart recalls the artist's love for nature and drawing from childhood, then his passion for light, which very quickly led him to paint the skies and the reflections of the water at different times of the day. 
Jean-Dominique Rey then analyses in his essay all of Monet's genius, his audacity, his modernity and the influence he had on other artists.
Finally, a catalogue raisonné of the 254 water lilies listed to date completes the book with colour reproductions and short instructions.
