The Cleveland Museum of Art is bringing together a massive Monet nympheas:
To anchor its big fall blockbuster, “Painting the Modern Garden: Monet to Matisse,” the museum persuaded the Saint Louis Art Museum and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City to lend it two large Claude Monet water lily compositions painted as companions to a third it owns.
The three paintings, which make a vast unified panorama of reflected light on the surface of Monet’s famous water lily pond in Giverny, France, haven’t been shown together in decades.
