Nymphéa

Eugène Atget

Cleveland Museum of Art

Nymphéa by Eugène Atget: A sepia-toned photograph of a pond covered with numerous lily pads, some of which have flowers. The pond is surrounded by trees and bushes in the background. The image is slightly faded and has a white border around it. The photograph is taken from a low angle, with the lily pads filling the bottom half of the image. The background is darker, with the sun peeking through the trees on the right side.
