A replica of artist Claude Monet's Japanese water garden has opened in New York. The riotous display of color, horticulture and landscape design invites visitors to stand in the shoes of the world-renowned impressionist painter.

The original stands in France, but the scene - which includes a reproduction of the Impressionist's house - has been lovingly recreated in the Bronx.

Impressionist painter, Claude Monet's Japanese water garden has inspired artists across the world. And it attracts around 500,000 tourists each year to the north of France.

But for those unable to visit the artist's iconic home, a trip to the Bronx in New York City over the next several months will offer a taste of Monet's indisputably radiant living masterpiece.

The exhibition features a seasonally changing display of flora. Summer months will see yellow and orange blossoms of nasturtiums, and lavenders, lilies and geraniums will fill the conservancy. In September and October, they will be replaced with chrysanthemums, salvia, sunflowers and other fall flowers.

Paul Tucker, curator & professor of Art History University of Massachusetts, said, "Historical accuracy is very important to an art historian, and also to the garden as a whole. And since we have documentation about the flowers that Monet grew we felt it very important to actually have those very flowers."

Among the rare artefacts in the exhibition are two paintings of his garden executed by the artist 15 years apart, says Professor Tucker.

Paul Tucker said, "One of which has never been seen here in the United States before of irises, and another one that comes from Yale University art gallery. They have never been together before. "

Erwin Perez, New York city, said, "Well, it's kinda like seeing what he saw way back then. I'm not an artist or anything like that but it's nice to see that he was able to put this garden together and really create something really beautiful with plants instead of with just paints."

"Monet's Garden" at the New York Botanical Garden runs through October 21.
