From the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City:
During summer 1880 Monet worked extensively in the area around the village of Vétheuil, northwest of Paris. He painted six views from the Île Saint-Martin, one of the many nearby islands in the Seine. In this example, Vétheuil may be seen in the background. In 1881 Monet returned to the site and depicted the view twice more.
