Monet's distinctive approach to art involved painting the same subjects repeatedly, often from different perspectives and at various times of the day. This allowed him to meticulously study and capture the ever-changing interplay of light and nature. His series paintings, including iconic works like the water lilies and haystacks, exemplify his dedication to exploring these effects under various conditions.
