This Harten, which is the size of a small park, is a total work of art. I am not judging it from a botanical perspective, but as someone who paints under the influence of impressionism. Incidentally, his Japanese bridge can be admired as a painting in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, (“Met”), in New York. I have already looked at several important museums in the world (the Museum of Modern Art in NYC was disappointing), and can therefore say that the Met is a museum of superlatives, without going into too much detail. Monet is represented here with around 15 works.

In 1893, ten years after his arrival in Giverny, Monet bought the plot of land adjacent to his property, on the other side of the railway and road. It was crossed by a small stream, the Ru, a branch of the Epte. With the support of the prefecture, Monet had the first small pond dug, despite opposition from his peasant neighbors, who feared that his strange plants would poison the water. Later, the pond was enlarged to its current size. The water garden is asymmetrical and curved. Monet was inspired by Japanese gardens, which he knew from prints. The painter was a passionate collector of Japanese woodcuts.

If you are nearby, you should stop and explore the ruins. A very impressive building built by the English in the 1190s, which was conquered by the French just a few years later.
