Camille Pissarro

The man with the long greying beard who we find in this self-portrait is the painter Camille Pissarro (1830-1903). A keen follower of the Impressionist movement, the artist specialised in landscapes around Paris, often painted in winter, such as the “Chestnut Tress at Louveciennes” or the urban landscapes of Montmartre. Towards the end of his life, his painting technique changed and he turned towards Neo-Impressionism, for example in the “Seine River and Louvre Palace”. Enjoy your visit!
