The story of Poplars

Monet painted the Poplars series in the summer and autumn of 1891. The trees grew in a marsh along the banks of the Epte a few kilometres upstream from his home at Giverny, and he painted them from a floating studio moored in the river. When the trees, which belonged to the commune of Limetz-Villez, were put up for auction before he had finished, Monet had to buy them, selling them back to the timber merchant once the series was complete.

Claude Monet

Oscar-Claude Monet was a French painter and founder of Impressionism who is seen as a key precursor to modernism, especially in his attempts to paint nature as he perceived it. During his long career, he was the most consistent and prolific practitioner of Impressionism's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions of nature, especially as applied to plein air (outdoor) landscape painting. The term "Impressionism" is derived from the title of his painting Impression, Sunrise, which was exhibited in 1874 at the First Impressionist Exhibition, initiated by Monet and a number of like-minded artists as an alternative to the Salon.
