What to expect

Orangerie Museum

Your virtual journey follows Monet from Argenteuil and the banks of the Seine to his home and garden at Giverny. Move through landscapes that inspired his paintings and see how his fascination with changing light, seasons, and time influenced the way he returned to the same subjects again and again.

Features

• Along the Seine: Begin around Argenteuil and the Seine, landscapes that became recurring subjects as Monet experimented with capturing changing light.

• Giverny: Enter the garden Monet created around his home, including the pond and Japanese bridges that became central to his later work.

• Water Lilies: See how the water-lily pond developed into one of Monet’s defining subjects and eventually inspired his monumental Water Lilies cycle.

• Later works: Follow Monet into his later years, when declining eyesight influenced his perception of color and his paintings moved toward increasingly abstract forms.

• Virtual reality: Experience the journey through a standalone VR headset, with the experience available in English and French.
