Along banks of "Conches" (name given to the small channels which strews the Poitevin Marsh), currently the water lilies are the kings.

Bright of colors, he recalls me an impressionist great painter whom I admire much, Claude Monet, who like them particularly and made works sublimes of them when he was installed at the village of Giverny in Normandy and made his splendid garden which I had the chance to visit it's already too a long time and which I advise to see, it's unforgettable, by the beauty, the harmony and the peaceful side which pleased this great man so much.

Monet will make dig a pond decorated with nymphea in the large garden of its house of Giverny in 1893. It will not paint this subject, which will dominate then its work, that since 1899. It will carry out a series of large-sized tables during twenty years following, in order to collect each detail, impression and effect of the flowers and water.

I advise you to visit this site to give you an idea of the museum which became its residence whose garden is a source of amazement at each season and the visit of its house left in the state, gives the impression which the painter will emerge from his workshop, stained painting. One enters what was its intimacy.

Hello Corinne,

Thx for your kind comment on my pictures. I'm always glad with the way you react. Sorry I don't react in that way on all your beautiful pictures. I see you take time to setup all kind of table tops, such as the sugar and the pac-man photos. With your photo's you remind me that I did that kind of photography a long time ago too. Unfortunately I don't take the time for that anymore (on this moment). Nevertheless I enjoy your beautiful pictures very much and sometimes you create what I had in mind (like the pencils).

This lily is also very beautiful. I like the good composition (the golden rule)and the colorfull frame. The colours and the sharpness of the flower are splendid !
I think I would have blurred and/or darkened the reflections on the leaves.

TFS
Marcel
