During his first winter in the village, Claude Monet painted Vétheuil in Winter (1878-79), depicting his new home on the Seine from the opposite bank.

Claude Monet's Vétheuil in Winter (1878-79) is a stunning painting that captures the essence of the artist's first winter in the village. Depicting his new home on the Seine, seen from the opposite bank of the river, the painting reflects Monet's deep connection with the natural world and his ability to capture its beauty in a unique way.
Monet's two and a half years in Vétheuil, a small farming community northwest of Paris, were marked by two severe winters. These challenging conditions inspired him to create this masterpiece, which is now the subject of this ninth volume in the Frick Diptych series. Susan Grace Galassi has written an insightful and engaging essay about Monet's difficult but productive time in Vétheuil. During his stay in the village, Monet faced the death of his wife Camille, which was a significant emotional setback. However, it was also a period of great creativity and growth for the artist.
The Frick's Monet painting is the only work by the artist in the collection, and it serves as the basis for other significant canvases made during his stay in the village in both winter and summer. Galassi's essay is accompanied by a text and an intriguing new work by the artist Olafur Eliasson. Created in response to the Monet painting, Eliasson's work will be shown at the Frick next to the painting that inspired it.
Overall, Claude Monet's Vétheuil in Winter is a masterpiece that showcases the artist's talent and resilience in the face of adversity. It is a testament to his ability to capture the beauty of the natural world and his profound connection with the places he visited. The Frick's Monet painting and Galassi's essay provide a valuable insight into the artist's life and work, and Eliasson's work adds a new dimension to the appreciation of this iconic painting.
