Claude Monet water lilies painting sells for $43m in New York


Claude Monet's Nympheas had been expected to fetch $30m-$50m

One of Claude Monet's famous water lily paintings has sold for $43.7m (£27m) at a New York auction.
A painting by Wassily Kandinsky also sold for $23m at the Christie's auction of impressionist and modern art, setting a record for the artist.
Works by Picasso and Miro also went under the hammer in the first of two weeks of major auctions in New York.
However, about 30% of the 69 paintings up for auction failed to find buyers, Reuters reported.
Monet's oil-on-canvas Nympheas - painting in 1905 during the artist's years at Giverny - reached the high end of its $30m-$50m pre-sale estimate.
From BBC News
Claude Monet  (14 November 1840 – 5 December 1926) was a founder of French impressionist painting, and the most consistent and prolific practitioner of the movement's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature, especially as applied to plein-air landscape painting.The term Impressionism is derived from the title of his painting Impression, Sunrise (Impression, soleil levant).
