"Cercanías del Monasterio de Piedra" (English: "Vicinity of the Monasterio de Piedra") is a notable landscape painting by the influential 19th-century Spanish-Belgian artist Carlos de Haes. Born in Belgium in 1826, de Haes moved to Spain at a young age and is celebrated for his role in transforming Spanish landscape painting by introducing a realist approach. The work is a prime example of his dedication to capturing the natural environment with a high degree of fidelity and attention to detail.

The painting depicts the surroundings of the Monasterio de Piedra, a historic monastery located in the Iberian System mountain range, near the town of Nuévalos in Aragon, Spain. The Monasterio de Piedra is renowned for its picturesque park and natural cascades, which have been a source of inspiration for artists and a destination for tourists since the 19th century. In "Cercanías del Monasterio de Piedra," de Haes meticulously renders the lush vegetation, the play of light and shadow, and the serene atmosphere of this tranquil locale.

Completed during a period when de Haes was at the height of his artistic powers, the painting is reflective of his commitment to plein air painting, a practice that involves painting outdoors to capture the true ambiance and changing conditions of the landscape. This technique was a hallmark of the realist and later impressionist movements, which sought to break from the traditional, idealized studio creations that had dominated European art.

"Cercanías del Monasterio de Piedra" is not only significant for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, as it provides a glimpse into the 19th-century Spanish countryside and the early realist movement in Spanish art. The work is held in high esteem by art historians and critics and is considered an important piece within Carlos de Haes's oeuvre. It continues to be studied and admired for its technical proficiency and its role in the evolution of landscape painting in Spain.
