Nympheas murals by Monet experience

Hi! I have been away for a while and felt like starting again by Monet's nympheas series.
He did about 250 paintings and these 8 murals I had the joy of seeing. I cannot explain in words what I felt. I was there looking in all directions. One panel another and another and the whole. I could not fix my attention in any of them but what I felt was so intense and good that I still carry it with me. I looked at the others who were there and I noticed that a kind of bond united us all.
I hope you can have an idea of what is being at this place and feel the same.
""It took me time to understand my waterlilies. I had planted them for the pleasure of it; I grew them without ever thinking of painting them." Claude Monet
