Camille Pissarro - Untitled

The subject is defined by the title "Street in Upper Norwood." The painting thus shows us a scene of everyday life captured by the painter. We see a late nineteenth-century scene, with a row of houses along the street, along which ladies stroll and a carriage approaches. Overall, therefore, landscape and genre scene are combined, and the artist manages to narrate the daily life of his time in all its simplicity.

The work before us is a reproduction based on a work by Pissarro held at the Neue Pinakothek in Munich. Therefore, describing the painting's style clearly means describing Pissarro's painting reproduced here. In its analysis of the atmosphere, its color scheme, and its rapid brushwork, it fits perfectly into the Impressionist movement. Furthermore, its brushstrokes make us understand that the work predates  the neo-impressionist phase in which the decomposition of colour becomes more scientific than instinctive.

Camille Pissarro is one of the most important Impressionist artists of the late nineteenth century. He was born in 1830 in Saint-Thomas. By 1874, when the first Impressionist exhibition was held, he was already playing a key role. He was known as a painter of the countryside, delicately capturing spring fields, tilled earth, and snow. In his second phase, he depicted the turmoil of city life in its transformation, creating views of Paris, London, and Rouen. From 1885, he moved toward Neo-Impressionism, applying the technique of Divisionism. He died in Paris in 1903.
