Robinson achieved a style that combined his faithfulness to formal concerns with elements of impressionist style and was the single most important figure in the development of American Impressionism.

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Theodore Robinson that beautifully captures the essence of rural life in Giverny, France during the late 19th century. The painting showcases a picturesque farmhouse nestled among rolling hills, surrounded by lush fields and crops. Robinson's close relationship with Claude Monet is evident in his style, which combines elements of impressionism with his own formal concerns. As one of the pioneers of American Impressionism, Robinson played a crucial role in its development and left an indelible mark on the art world. The painting also offers insight into the communal farming system prevalent at that time. The patchwork layout of fields on the hillsides reflects how farmers worked together to cultivate various crops for their community's sustenance.
