The story of Wheatstacks, Snow Effect, Morning

This canvas belongs to Monet's Haystacks series, about twenty-five paintings of stacks of harvested grain near Giverny that he began at the end of the summer of 1890 and continued through the following spring. The series is famous for the way Monet repeated one subject to show the changing light and atmosphere at different times of day, across the seasons and in many kinds of weather. Paintings from the series are now spread among museums including the Musée d'Orsay, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Getty Center.

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.
