Pissarro Camille - Sunlight on the Road Pontoise art print
An archival premium Quality art Print of Sunlight on the Road Pontoise by Camille Pissarro for sale by Brandywine General Store. The artist finished this oil on canvas in the year 1874 with the original measuring 21 by 32 inches. Pissarro signed and dated this impressionist painting in lower right. During the decade of the 1870s many of the French Impressionist Painters went to live in the small villages around Paris where they painted country landscapes with a fresh and different approach, often working outdoors so they could be more in touch with the scene. This balanced composition by Pissarro with the cool harmony of blues, greens and yellows give this river view a serene peaceful appearance typical of Pissaro's works. The scene shows the village visible behind the trees across the river, on this side of the river is a road and more trees. A woman and child are walking to the right while a rider on a horse is riding the opposite direction. A walking path comes out of the woods and intersects with the country road in the center of the composition. Famous artists print #138
