Water-Lilies is a 1917 oil by Claude Monet, held at Musée Marmottan Monet.
This painting shows a pond with lily pads and flowers. The water is purple, and the lily pads are green. There are some flowers on the water, but they are not very clear. The painting is done in a style that makes it look like the colors are mixed together. This style is called impasto. You might want to look up the artist Claude Monet next.
