A Peasant Woman Digging in Front of Her Cottage

Driven by the loneliness and poverty he had experienced in the Hague, Vincent van Gogh returned to his parents’ home in the Netherlands in 1883. There he created a series of paintings of cottages based on his walks through the village. He wrote to his brother, "I feel for the brood and the nests—particularly those human nests, those cottages on the heath and their inhabitants.”

Stack of Wheat

Through 1890 and 1891, Monet created a series of paintings depicting the stacks of wheat that stood outside his farmhouse in Giverny. These stacks were, for the artist, a symbol of sustenance and survival. He painted at several easels simultaneously in the field and then refined pictorial harmonies in the studio. The Art Institute has the world's largest group of Monet’s Stacks of Wheat.
