 The landscape paintings of Dutch painter Johan Barthold Jongkind ( 1819 – 1891 ) influenced both Boudin and Monet and contributed to the development of early Impressionism . After meeting Jongkind in Sainte @-@ Adresse in 1862 , Monet began to cultivate an interest in Jongkind 's perspective on the changing conditions of the landscape . From Jongkind , Monet learned to substitute optical color for local color . " Complementing the teaching I received from Boudin , Jongkind was from that moment my true master , " Monet later reminisced . " It was he who completed the education of my eye " . This new way of seeing , a shift from a conceptual to a perceptual approach , formed the basis for Monet 's Haystacks ( 1890 @-@ 1891 ) , a series of 25 works showing the effects of dynamic atmospheric conditions over time on a single haystack motif .

 The extant works repeatedly address the same scenes and themes . The nativity is recurrent , while several panels depict the Virgin and Child , often surrounded by a chorus of angels , or in earlier panels , blessed by a hovering representation of God or a dove ( representing the Holy Ghost ) . In many instances Mary is enclosed in her usual enclosed garden . Several reveal the work of a number of hands , with weaker and less confident passages attributed to workshop members . The figures of Mary and Gabriel on the reverse of the Dombild were drawn more rapidly and with less skill than the figures on the main panels , and their drapery is modelled with , according to the art historian Julien Chapuis , a certain " stiffness " , while the cross hatching " achieves no clear definition of relief " . A number of drawings have been associated with him , but only one , a c.1450 brush and ink on paper entitled Virgin and Child and now in the Musee du Louvre , is attributed with confidence .

 Among his famous drawings are the Vitruvian Man , a study of the proportions of the human body , the Head of an Angel , for The Virgin of the Rocks in the Louvre , a botanical study of Star of Bethlehem and a large drawing ( 160 × 100 cm ) in black chalk on coloured paper of The Virgin and Child with St. Anne and St. John the Baptist in the National Gallery , London . This drawing employs the subtle sfumato technique of shading , in the manner of the Mona Lisa . It is thought that Leonardo never made a painting from it , the closest similarity being to The Virgin and Child with St. Anne in the Louvre .
