A central subject but still inscribed in the village
The houses and trees remain clearly visible. They give the millstone a rural function and distinguish it from the isolated shepherds that Monet would study a few years later.

Claude Monet · Giverny · 1886 · W1073
A haystack stands in an orange-red field in front of the houses and trees of Giverny. Its compact shape receives greens, yellows and roses which connect it to the meadow, while the bottom hillside fades under a changing sky. Signed and dated Claude Monet 86 lower right, this oil on canvas measuring 60.5 × 81.5 cm is preserved in the Hermitage Museum under the number ̄onds-6563 and corresponds to Wildenstein 1073.

Look at the work
Placed slightly to the left of the center, the millstone occupies the foreground without filling the entire composition. Behind it, low roofs form a horizontal band, then trees and hills overlap several depths to the sky.
The field combines coral red, pink, yellow and green in long inclined touches. The millstone uses these colors in a more rounded material; the purple and gray sky, painted more widely, announces a change of weather.
The millstone is not yet the exclusive motif of the major series of 1890: it remains an element of the landscape, connected to the field, farms and hillside.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.
The houses and trees remain clearly visible. They give the millstone a rural function and distinguish it from the isolated shepherds that Monet would study a few years later.
The strands are not drawn one by one. Yellow, green, pink and blue passages revolve around the volume and suggest both straw and light.
The gray pink sky appears heavy, while a lighter strip opens the horizon. This opposition gives the scene its mixture of calm and movement.
Reference image
The unique high definition image of 6484 × 4800 px was reduced to 3000 × 2221 px and then encoded as a real WebP, without artificial enlargement.
It must remain surrounded by the field so that the foreground retains its width and the village remains readable behind.
The meadow does not form a flat area of poppies; the two colors interpenetrate in long touches which reflect the grass and the wind.
Their light walls and orange roofs serve as a transition. Architectural details that are too sharp would make them more important than the millstone.
Documented benchmarks
The Hermitage Museum documents Meule à Giverny, oil on canvas from 1886, 60.5 × 81.5 cm, signed and dated lower right, inventory ʻonds-6563 and Wildenstein catalog 1073.
The table precedes the systematic series of 1890-1891. The millstone remains here an element of a broader view of the village and its fields.
The Hermitage notice brings the canvas closer to a field of poppies from 1885 showing this slope without the millstone in the foreground.
The work belonged to Sergei Shchukin from 1904, joined the Museum of Modern Western Art in Moscow then entered the Hermitage in 1931.
