About the piece

Painted in 1870, this early Impressionist work by Claude Monet depicts a steam train traversing the landscape behind a lush green field. The composition balances the industrial presence of the train with the leisure of figures strolling under parasols, rendered with the artist's characteristic loose brushwork and sensitivity to natural light.
