Haystack at Sunset (Meule, soleil couchant), 1891 by Claude Monet

Haystack at Sunset, painted by Claude Monet in 1891 frames a single grainstack glowing amber and rose against a cool, hazy field as the day’s last light settles over Giverny. The canvas belongs to Monet’s celebrated Haystacks series, in which he painted the same handful of stacks standing in a field near his house at every hour and season to capture the fleeting effects of changing light. The series proved a turning point in his career, establishing the practice of serial painting that would define his later work at Giverny.

Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926). Date: 1891.
