PISSARRO, Camille: The Côte des Bœufs, Pontoise

🖼 The Côte des Bœufs, Pontoise, 1877
London, United Kingdom

Vibrant brushstrokes capture a figure in a striking yellow-and-black striped jersey, rendered with Impressionist immediacy. Pissarro's bold color choices and loose technique exemplify early modernism's break from academic convention, celebrating everyday subjects with painterly freedom.
