« It's a painting that has always fascinated me, but I've never known why. The Water Lilies, in the whole work, was always something that for me was still "more". But for the longest time, I never knew how to describe this "more". »


For the Musée de l'Orangerie, Philippe Cognée has created a collection of previously unseen works that take an acute yet subtle look at Claude Monet's Water Lilies.
