    Jacob Abraham Camille Pissarro (piss-AR-oh; French:[kamijpisaʁo]; 10 July 1830 – 13 November 1903) was a Danish-French Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist painter born on the island of St Thomas (now in the US Virgin Islands, but then in the Danish West Indies). His importance resides in his contributions to both Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. Pissarro studied from great forerunners, including Gustave Courbet and Jean-Baptiste-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.

    In 1873 he helped establish a collective society of fifteen aspiring artists, becoming the "pivotal" figure in holding the group together and encouraging the other members. Art historian John Rewald called Pissarro the "dean of the Impressioni

    Discovery the Top 10 Camille Pissarro Paintings

    Pissarro met neo-impressionist painters Georges Seurat and Paul Signac in 1885.

    This meeting prompted a shift in his painting style as he began experimenting with Pointillist techniques, which utilised colour theory to create highly complex artworks.

    Pissarro’s take on the technique can be seen in ‘Late Afternoon in Our Meadow’.

    In this painting, Pissarro builds up dots of complementary colours to create the impression of a summer’s day in the countryside.

    Yellows and oranges denote the areas of the meadow that are bathed in sun while daubs of blues and purples indicate shadow. The closer you look at the painting, the more variety of colour you can see.

    As art historian and descendant of Pissarro, Joachim Pissarro described:

    "His representations of these fields and gardens constitute the most spectacularly intense pictorial effort to ‘cover’ a particular given space in his career.”
