Impressionism was essentially the study of how light hits an object.
- I have gone back to some things that can't possibly be done: water, with weeds waving at the bottom. It is a wonderful sight, but it drives one to crazy to try to paint it. But that is the kind of thing I am always tackling.
* artist quotations from Monet's letter to art critic and friend Gustave Geffroy, 22 June 1890; as quoted in "Letters of the great artists - from Blake to Pollock -", Richard Friedenthal, Thames and Hudson, London, 1963, p. 129
See: Haystacks by Claude Monet.
Haystacks were a series of impressionist paintings of the same subject in a variety of different seasons, days, and hours. The time of day, the actual day, and the seasons all affected the lighting. Monet therefore did a series analyzing the light hitting the specific object.
