The Vibe:Monet's Water Lilies in two oval rooms
Monet designed two oval rooms for his Water Lilies and gave them to the state after the First World War. They have held the murals since 1927.
Daylight falls from skylights onto the curved walls of water and reeds. Downstairs, the mood shifts to the bold portraits of the Walter-Guillaume rooms.
- Home to Monet's eight monumental Water Lilies murals
