This exhibition offers our community a rare opportunity to experience the spirit of Monet through a contemporary lens.

"Nympheus Luminansis is a stunningly beautiful exhibition!  I must say the experience of viewing it reminds me of the way I felt visiting the Musee de L’Orangerie!  I can’t wait to share it with our visitors. Thank you, Laurence, for allowing us to host it. Now to make travel plans to visit France again!"

"Nympheus Luminansis: The Waterlilies of Light is far more than a love letter to renowned artist Claude Monet. It is a masterful example of contemporary French impressionism, which leaves its viewers thoroughly captivated. Laurence Saunois has taken a sublime and intricate approach to recreate the inspiration behind Monet's signature series of Waterlilies paintings which are thoughtfully crafted and filled with endless and delightful details. Those who love impressionism will love this series and will find something new in each piece every time."
