Camille Pissarro: Rue de l’Epicerie, Rouen

Camille Pissarro (French,1830–1903), Rue de l’Epicerie, Rouen (Effect of Sunlight), 1898, oil on canvas, The Met

“By the time of Pissarro’s fourth visit to Rouen in 1898, he was “already familiar with the motifs there.”… On August 19, he wrote to his son Lucien: “Yesterday I found an excellent place from which I can paint the rue de l’Epicerie and even the market, a really interesting one, which takes place every Friday.” Pissarro painted the view three times, but The Met’s picture is the only one that shows the market in progress.”
