Camille Pissarro

description

Mediums: oil, canvas.

After a period of experiments with the Neo-Impressionist style, Camille Pissarro returned to the loose, multidirectional brushstrokes that he had used before. This bustling scene, alive with the noise and movement of traffic and pedestrians, was the view from his window at the Hôtel Garnier in Paris, where he stayed for a few weeks early in 1893.
