Monet's series of paintings of the Gare Saint-Lazare railway station captures the drama of steam, light, and iron in the modern city. This version, one of twelve in the series, shows the arrival of a train from Normandy, the billowing steam dissolving the architecture in a shimmer of blue and silver.
