Monet, water lilies : the complete series / Jean-Dominique Rey ; Denis Rouart - Paris : Flamarion , 2008 - 159 p. : chiefly illus. ; 32 cm

Monet, the father of French impressionist painting, devoted twenty-five years to a series of paintings of the water lilies that floated in the pond of his lavish garden in Giverny. This volume is dedicated to those paintings, and opens with a biography of Monet that links the artist's childhood passion for nature and for drawing to his later fascination with light.
