Claude Monet's paintings were quite different from the art styles that were popular in the 1870s

France. Traditional artists always did their artwork in a studio and their paintings were realistic-they looked exactly like the real world. Claude Monet was part of a group of painters who were called Impressionists(印象派画家). Their paintings were light and a bit fuzzy-they gave an impression of what the real world looked like. Sometimes Impressionists worked outside, which was a very unusual thought in their time. Impressionism received its name from an early painting by Claude Monet titled impression, Sunrise.

crated a series of Impressionist paintings of trains from January to March of 1877. He worked on

his paintings right on the train platform at the Gare Saint-Lazare, the train station on Saint Lazare

Street. Although there were many train stations in Paris, this was the first train station built in Paris so it had historical significance(意义).

Monet’s train scenes turned his career into a success and for the station master, made his train station famous until even now.
