Description
1883年の4月末、モネはポワシーを離れ、パリの北西70km、セーヌ河の渓谷とエプト川の合流点に位置する小さな村ジヴェルニーに家を借りた。そして1884-1886年には、本作品を含む8点の「積みわら」の連作を制作している。これらの作品では、日常的な風景に降りそそぐ光を、明暗の強いコントラストで表現している。1890-1891年にかけては、脱穀前の麦穂を積み上げた紡錘形の積みわらをモティーフとして、天候や時間による光の変化をあざやかな色彩で描いた25点を制作した。1891年5月、モネはそのうちの15点の「積みわら」の連作をデュラン=リュエル画廊で発表して大成功を収めた。（『モネと画家たちの旅』図録、2007）
