About the piece
Painted in 1867, this work by Camille Pissarro depicts the banks of the Oise river at Pontoise. The composition features a striking juxtaposition of industrial elements and rural architecture, rendered with the light, rhythmic brushwork and atmospheric sensitivity that would soon define the Impressionist movement.
