From The National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo:
Monet's subject range gradually narrowed to the contents of his garden after his move to Givergny and this work is an extremely decorative example of his still lifes during this period. The work exudes a Japanese sensibility with its tall picture plane reminiscent of Japanese wall panel paintings, and the spatial ambiguity of the ascending, undulating lines produces a decidedly decorative effect.
