Monet's 'Haystacks' series, created between 1890 and 1891, marked a pivotal moment in his career, as it was his first multi-painting series of the same subject. He famously worked on several canvases simultaneously, rushing between them to capture the fleeting light of specific moments, ultimately producing around 25 versions of the haystacks near his home in Giverny.
