In 1911, Pierre Bonnard bought a property called La Roulotte, located in Vernonnet, a few miles from Giverny. He often stayed there until 1936, when he moved permanently to Le Cannet, where he had bought a property in 1926. In Normandy, Claude Monet and Pierre Bonnard were friends and shared a mutual admiration. Bonnard went to Giverny several times, as can be seen from their correspondence and many photographs. The opinion of his younger friend was important to Monet, as shown in a letter dating back to when he was working on his Grand Decorations, a series of mural-sized paintings on the theme of water lilies, for the Musée de l’Orangerie:
