The story

Both Monet and Pissarro were obsessed with haystacks. Painted them again and again, chasing the way light wrapped around them at different hours. But there's one difference. Monet gives you light and nothing else. Pissarro almost alway put someone in the frame. A woman between the trees, barely there, almost part of the landscape. Because for Pissarro, a place without people in it wasn't really a place.
