In this painting Monet ignores the growing industrialisation that is spreading to Argenteuil to devote himself to the bucolic charm of a walk in the country.

"I'm working like never and at new attempts, figures in the open air as I understand them, made like landscapes. It is an old ream that still worries me and that I want to fulfill once and for all; but it is hard !"
Claude Monet
