PISSARRO, Camille: Poultry Market at Pontoise

🖼 Poultry Market at Pontoise, 1882
Oil on canvas
81 × 65 cm

Bustling market stalls overflow with poultry and vendors in quick, broken brushstrokes that capture daily provincial life. Pissarro's divisionist technique and humble subject matter exemplify Impressionism's democratic vision, elevating ordinary commerce to fine art.
