About the piece

In this 1873 work, Camille Pissarro captures the factory at St. Ouen-l'Aumône during a flood of the Oise. The painting showcases his early Impressionist style, using a soft, diffused light and a nuanced palette of earth tones and grays to blend the industrial landscape with the surrounding natural elements.
