| 1852-54 Camille Pissarro Self-Portrait oil on canvas 31 x 28.5 cm National Gallery of Denmark |
Camille Pissarro (1830-1903)
was a Danish-French Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist painter born on the
island of St. Thomas in the Danish West Indies (now the US Virgin Islands). His
importance resides in his contributions to the Impressionist movements. He
studied from great forerunners including Gustave Courbet and Camille Corot. He
later studied and worked alongside Georges Seurat and Paul Signac when he took
on the Neo-Impressionist style at the age of 54.
Pissarro is the only artist
to have shown in all eight Paris Impressionist exhibitions between 1874 and
1886. He acted as a father-figure, not only to the Impressionists, but to all
four of the major Post-Impressionists, Georges Seurat, Paul Cézanne, Vincent
van Gogh and Paul Gauguin.
I hope the story of Pissarro’s life and
work is of interest because it is a major series running over the next few
weeks. Though I haven’t included absolutely every piece of Pissarro’s work, I
am featuring well over a thousand examples, the better to understand his legacy.
This is part 2 of a major
21-part series on the works of Camille Pissarro. For a fuller biography and for
earlier works, see Part 1 also.
