Tons de branco e cor-de-rosa num mar de azul e verde dão a sensação de um aglomerado de nenúfares, que captam a luz e são reflectidos na superfície da água. A tinta foi aplicada en pinceladas gestuais e espessas. Esta preocupação em representar a luz, a espontaneidade da execução e a qualidade palpável da superfície devem muito ao Impressionismo, o gerupo do qual Monet era um dos principais membros. No entanto, a sua preocupação com a cor em si e a sua falta de interesse por quais quer composições formais, afastam-no bastante dos objectivos originais do Impressionismo. Assim, esta obra tem sido categorizada como Impressionismo Abstracto. Em 1890, com 50 anos, Monet comprou uma casa e um grande pedaço de terra em Givemy, onde começou a construir o seu jardim aquático. O tema dos nenúfares preencheu a sua visão artística durante os últimos 30 anos de sua vida. Pintou várias outras séries, incluindo choupos, medas de feno, e a Catedral de Ruão, as quias mostravam a mesma cena em diferentes alturas do dia ou das estações. Monet nasceu em Paris em 1840 e morreu na mesma cidade em 1926.

Em "Misty and Jimmy Paulette in a taxi, NYC, 1991", Goldin fotografa dois dos amigos transexuais seus amigos, tirada no dia do desfile do Gay Parade (Orgulho Gay) em Nova Iorque. Goldin não assume uma postura voyeurística ou sentimental. Através da intimidade e do afecto em relação aos seus temas, a autora revela a sua velnerabilidade, bem como a sua própria admiração pela sexualidade e encanto assumidos. Goldin fotografa a vida directamente. A sua atenção centra-se na família alargada constituída por amigos e amantes - as pessoas que a rodeiam, partilhando os mesmos prazeres e sofrimentos. É o fio da navalha: um mundo clandestino de vidas duras, abuso de drogas, amor, sexo, sobrevivência, violência e omnipresença da morte. As fotografias de Goldin não são deliberadas, mas sim semelhantes a instantâneos de um álbum de família e é este realismo e estilo despretencioso que torna o seu diário fotográfico num registo fiel e comevedor da sua vida. Nan Goldin nasceu em Washington, EUA, em 1953.
