Camille Pissarro

The Boulevard Montmartre at Night

US$ 618.00

Gas lamps and carriage lights blur into streaks of yellow and white along a rain-damp Parisian boulevard, painted from a hotel window above the street. Pissarro made this the only night scene in his long series of views down the same boulevard at different times of day and weather. The picture captures the modern city as a place defined as much by artificial light as by daylight.

Artist

Camille Pissarro (1830-1903) was the only artist to show in all eight Impressionist exhibitions and served as a mentor to younger painters including Cézanne and Gauguin. Born in the Danish West Indies, he settled in France and spent his later career painting series of the same urban view under changing conditions of light, weather and time of day. He lost part of his life’s work when Prussian soldiers occupied his home during the Franco-Prussian War.
