Claude Monet - Water Lilies 1919. Eliminating the horizon and the sky, Monet focused on a small area
of the pond, seen as a piece of nature, almost a close-up. No details stand out and the overall impression
is one of a shapeless surface. The square format reinforces the neutrality of the composition. The lack of
a frame of reference gives the fragment an infinite, limitless feeling. - art-Monet.com
