About the artwork

After first settling in Giverny in 1883 and acquiring his house there in 1890, Monet bought a second plot of land across the road, on which he established his famed water garden with a Japanese-style bridge. One of a series of this particular view, this composition is among his first to emphasise the reflections of the densely packed trees on the flat surface of the water. Nearly omitting any reference to the surrounding landscape, Monet fuses the natural and human-made worlds together, creating an all-encompassing vision of the delicately arched bridge and lush foliage.
