A vibrant vintage oil on canvas painting depicting a serene lily pond scene inspired by Giverny, the famous home and gardens of Claude Monet in Normandy, France. Featuring a rowboat and a woman with parasol crossing a charming footbridge, the composition evokes the romantic atmosphere of Monet’s celebrated water lily gardens. Rendered in luminous turquoise, green, and aqua tones, the work captures a whimsical, naïf sensibility with expressive brushwork and rich color saturation.

Signed “S. Girard,” this piece is presented in a museum-quality traditional gilded frame with elegant linen matting, creating a striking contrast between the playful composition and refined presentation. We have encountered other mid-century works by Girard from the 1950s depicting Riviera scenes, sailboats, florals, and coastal landscapes in a similarly colorful style.

This painting works beautifully as a statement piece in a living room, entryway, hallway, bedroom, sunroom, or above a console or fireplace mantel. The vivid palette pairs especially well with Palm Beach, Hollywood Regency, French Country, Coastal, Traditional, and Mid-Century interiors. It also layers well into maximalist spaces that embrace color and collected artwork.

Collectors and designers drawn to Impressionist-inspired garden scenes, Monet-inspired imagery, colorful European landscapes, and decorative vintage wall art will especially appreciate this piece.

In very good vintage condition with minor imperfections as shown.
