"Exterior of the Saint-Lazare Station, Arrival of a Train" is an 1877 painting by the French Impressionist artist Claude Oscar Monet. This work is part of a series of paintings by Monet that depict the Gare Saint-Lazare, a bustling train station in Paris. Monet's interest in the station stemmed from its modernity and the symbol it represented of the industrial age and its impact on urban life.

The painting captures a moment of everyday life, with a train arriving into the station, enveloped in steam. Monet's use of color and light reflects the transient effects of the steam and smoke on the surrounding architecture and the figures within the scene. The artist's loose brushwork and the play of light and shadow are characteristic of the Impressionist movement, which sought to capture the fleeting moments of modern life, emphasizing the sensory effect of the scene over detailed representation.

Monet's series on the Gare Saint-Lazare was revolutionary in its focus on the contemporary urban landscape, a departure from the traditional subjects of historical, mythological, or pastoral scenes that were prevalent in the art of the time. The series includes twelve canvases, of which "Exterior of the Saint-Lazare Station, Arrival of a Train" is a part, showcasing various perspectives and times of day within the station's confines.

This painting, like others in the series, was exhibited at the third Impressionist exhibition in 1877, where it garnered both critical attention and public interest. Monet's work on the Gare Saint-Lazare series is considered a pivotal moment in his career and a significant contribution to the Impressionist movement, highlighting the transformative effects of modernization on the urban environment and the new visual experiences it presented.

"Exterior of the Saint-Lazare Station, Arrival of a Train" is not only a testament to Monet's mastery of light and atmosphere but also serves as a historical document of the period, capturing the essence of Parisian life at the height of the Industrial Revolution. The painting is held in high regard and is featured in various art historical texts as an exemplary work of Impressionism.
