Painting Description
"Yerres, on the Pond, Water Lilies" (French: "Yerres, au bord de l'étang, les nénuphars") is a painting by the French artist Gustave Caillebotte, created in 1878. As a member of the Impressionist movement, Caillebotte was known for his keen observation of light and its effects on the landscape, as well as his interest in capturing moments of daily life. This painting is a testament to his fascination with water surfaces and the interplay of reflections, a theme that was also famously explored by his contemporary, Claude Monet.
The artwork depicts a tranquil scene at the family estate in Yerres, a town situated approximately 20 kilometers south of Paris. Caillebotte spent much of his youth here, and the property's park and pond became frequent subjects of his paintings. "Yerres, on the Pond, Water Lilies" is characterized by its detailed rendering of the pond's surface, dotted with water lilies, and surrounded by lush vegetation. The painting captures the serenity of the private garden and the reflective quality of the water, showcasing Caillebotte's skill in rendering the effects of light and shadow.
Measuring 89 by 116 cm, the painting is executed in oil on canvas. It is a fine example of Caillebotte's work during the period when he was actively involved with the Impressionists, although he often diverged from their typical style by incorporating elements of realism into his compositions. Unlike Monet, who would later become renowned for his series of water lily paintings, Caillebotte did not frequently revisit this motif, making this work a unique contribution to his oeuvre.
"Yerres, on the Pond, Water Lilies" is part of Caillebotte's broader body of work that captures the essence of the French landscape and the leisure activities of the bourgeoisie during the late 19th century. Today, the painting is held in a private collection, and it continues to be celebrated for its technical mastery and its quiet, contemplative atmosphere.
