Pissarro's orchards and boulevards in oil

Twenty hand-painted oils after Camille Pissarro: the red rooftops at Pontoise, orchards and haystacks at Éragny, hoarfrost across a ploughed field, peasant women resting in the grass, and the Boulevard Montmartre seen from a high window in rain and spring sun. Each is painted to order in oil on canvas, in the size and finish you choose, and delivered free Australia-wide 21 to 28 days from order.

Why Pissarro

Pissarro's small strokes need distance, so scale the canvas up

Broken colour only resolves when you step back, and the usual mistake with Pissarro is buying a canvas too small.

Pissarro worked in short, separate strokes of unmixed colour. Stand half a metre away and a hayfield looks like grey-green rubble; step back three metres and it settles into light. That is worth knowing before you buy, because it decides both size and placement: these paintings need viewing distance, so they belong on the far wall of a living room rather than in a hallway you walk straight past.

For a main wall, start at 100 x 75 cm; smaller than that and the broken brushwork turns to noise. Hang the centre around 145 cm and keep it off a wall that takes hard afternoon sun, which flattens the greys. The palette is dusty, all sage, ochre, lilac and warm cream, so it sits well on off-white, limewash and oak, and struggles against cool blue-grey paint or busy wallpaper.

Questions people ask

Is this a print or a real painting?

A real painting. Every piece is hand-painted in oils on canvas by a professional artist. Nothing here is printed, and nothing is a print with paint dabbed on top.

How close is it to the original?

Very. Our artists work from high-resolution references of the original and match composition, colour and brushwork. Because it is painted by hand, no two are identical, which is rather the point.

What sizes can I order?

Seven standard sizes, from 60 × 50cm up to 200 × 135cm, and custom sizes on request. Open the size guide on any painting to see each size to scale next to a sofa.

Framed or unframed?

Your choice at checkout: stretched and ready to hang, rolled in a tube, or framed in floating, classic or ornate frames. A floating frame adds a few centimetres each side; an ornate frame adds roughly 8 to 12cm.

How long does it take?

21 to 28 days, because it is painted to order. Delivery is free and tracked anywhere in Australia.

What if I don't love it?

Thirty-day money-back guarantee. Tell us within thirty days of delivery and we will make it right or refund you.

About Pissarro & our reproductions

The life

Known as the 'Father of Impressionism', Camille Pissarro painted rural and urban French life — particularly the landscapes in and around Pontoise and scenes from Montmartre — with an honesty and warmth entirely his own. Born at Charlotte Amalie on the island of St Thomas, he settled in Paris in 1855 and became the only artist to exhibit in all eight Impressionist exhibitions.

His mature work displays a deep empathy for peasants and labourers, and his generosity shaped the movement as much as his brush: he was a patient mentor to both Cézanne and Gauguin, who each called themselves his pupils. In his final years he painted his celebrated boulevard series from Paris hotel windows, and he died in the city in 1903.
