During his time in Vétheuil, from 1878 to 1881, Claude Monet experienced both profound personal tragedy with the death of his wife Camille and a period of intense artistic experimentation. Despite his grief, he produced over 150 paintings of the surrounding landscape, relentlessly capturing the fleeting effects of light and weather, solidifying his revolutionary approach to Impressionism.
