Monet painted Train in the Snow while living near to the station at Argenteuil. He had ample opportunity to observe the trains as they embarked and disembarked their freight of passengers.

Throughout his career Monet was particularly fascinated by the effects of fog, mist, steam, and smoke, and was therefore quite happy to paint scenes redolent of the industrial revolution – railway stations full of steam and smoke, and factories and workshops belching out smoke and vapours.

It was the purely visual qualities of such scenes which caught his attention: he was making no particular social point; nor did he share the prejudices of many of his contemporaries who wanted to get back to pre-industrial nature, or at least to preserve it unsullied in their paintings, and failed to see the romance and the purely visual excitements of modern life.

It was possible that Monet was influenced in this by the work of Turner: he certainly saw Turner’s most famous train painting, Rain, Steam and Speed, when he came to London to escape the war in 1870. In Train in the Snow he creates a powerful feeling of romantic melancholy: this could be the train under which Anna Karenina met her death.
