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.
