The Monet room on the fifth floor of MOMA in New York, with its two enormous Water Lilies’ works on opposing walls, is a deeply beautiful space. You should go there.
Here’s what’s remarkable about Monet. Zoom in. Look closely. Regardless of how close or how far you gaze, you get a different painting, different scenes and subjects, and possible interpretations. It’s wild.
Follow OP’s link here, zoom in, and see for yourself.
- polotics 4y agoTotally worth it to go up to the top of MOMA and gaze a while. Pro tip: you know you stayed long enough once the security guards start eyeing you suspiciously! ;-)

- notreallyserio 4y agoYou might be able to work around this deliberate bug created by Google engineers by enabling zoom in your browser's accessibility settings. At least that's how I did it on Chrome back in the day.
- robbedpeter 4y agoYeah. It might as well be in flash.
- hef19898 4y agoIf you have the oppotunity you have to visit Monet's garden north of Paris.
