Camille Pissarro was a Danish-French artist in the late 1800s. He identified himself with the Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist movements, and his paintings had a great effect on both genres. Impressionism emphasizes the natural depiction of light, especially its change over periods of time, on perfectly ordinary subject matters. It also includes thin, visible brush strokes and an open organization of each item in the painting. Pissarro frequently painted common, working people, such as peasants harvesting crops. His message was often to show real life without idealizing it for the sake of art. He also enjoyed painting sceneries, emphasizing the natural beauty of gardens and landscapes. Pissarro was important in the art community both during his lifetime and after his death. He was so respected that he headed the elite Société Anonyme des Artistes, Peintres, Sculpteurs et Graveurs, and he was openly praised and admired by great artists such as Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin. overstockArt recognizes Camille Pissarro’s greatness as well, and we offer a large selection of reproductions of his most well known works.
