Claude Monet’s, “Water Lily Pond” sold for over $80 million dollars at a Christie’s auction today. I had the opportunity to see one of the water lily paintings from the collection, painted in 1919, at the Tate Modern in London. In particular, the water lily paintings have a luminosity to them that is almost hypnotizing and very peaceful. Your blood pressure can drop just sitting in a room with one.
