About the piece

Part of his iconic series, Claude Monet’s 'Haystacks: Snow Effect' captures the fleeting quality of light on a winter morning in Giverny. The canvas is filled with a soft, atmospheric glow, using a palette of warm oranges and cool blues to define the mass of the haystacks and the long shadows they cast across the frozen ground.
