Claude Monet’s series of grainstacks made the subject popular. Armand Guillaumin, who was roughly the same age as his colleague, soon took up the subject himself. His intensive application of paint and the sharper definition of the surfaces eschew lightness and atmospheric flickering. The precise description of forms thus contrasts with the style of Impressionism.
