Description
Wind Effect of the Poplars is now part of the state collections thus allowing the series of the Poplars, started right after the Haystacks and just before the Cathedrals, during the spring, summer and autumn 1891, to be represented in French collections.
This series includes over twenty paintings of the trees planted by the swamp in Limetz, on the left bank of the river Epte, about two kilometers upriver from Giverny. The instantaneous quality of these paintings was meant to render the force and brevity of the impression felt in front of nature, the variations of light, of the weather and seasons being central in the preoccupations of the "series" painter.
In this painting, the composition of which is outstanding, with the play of curves followed by the trees, Monet has chosen to represent only three trees in the foreground while accentuating the diagonal of the middle one.
Oscar-Claude Monet ; 14 November 1840 � 5 December 1926) was a founder of French Impressionist painting, and the most consistent and prolific practitioner of the movement's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature. Monet's ambition of documenting the French countryside led him to adopt a method of painting the same scene many times in order to capture the changing of light and the passing of the seasons.
