About the piece

Painted in 1897, this work is part of Camille Pissarro's celebrated series capturing the Boulevard Montmartre from his window at the Grand Hôtel de Russie. The piece masterfully renders the constant motion of the modern city, using light, rhythmic brushstrokes to depict the swarm of carriages and crowds under the hazy, sun-drenched sky of a Parisian afternoon.
