The Mount Kolsaas series of oil paintings was created by the French Impressionist painter Claude Monet in 1895.

In the winter of early 1895 Monet decided to undertake a painting trip to Norway, where his eldest stepson, Jacques Hoschedé, was living at the time. The journey, by train and ferry, was long and exhausting and on arrival in Christiana (now Oslo) he spent several days looking for suitable subject matter, eventually ending up in a farmhouse occupied by other artists in the area of Sandvika (or Sandviken), some 15km (9.3 miles) west of Oslo. There, after painting scenes of the local fjord and a nearby village, he created a series of paintings of Mount Kolsaas. In Monet's typical style, each painting was done out of doors at different times of the day and in different weather conditions. He completed the undertaking by mid-March.[1]
