EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Camille Pissarro's masterpiece, "Seated Peasant Woman" created in 1881 but printed in 1939. The painting, also known as "La bergere" or "The Shepherdess" depicts a French peasant girl seated with a stick in hand. It is currently housed at the Musee d'Orsay in Paris and can be found within the pages of John Rewald's book, "Camille Pissarro". Pissarro, an influential figure in Impressionism and Post-Impressionism movements, beautifully captures the essence of rural life and poverty during the late 19th century. This portrait exudes a sense of rustic charm as it portrays a young woman from the countryside. The colors used by Pissarro add depth and emotion to this piece. The warm earth tones evoke a feeling of connection to nature while highlighting the hardships faced by peasants during that era. Through his artistry, Pissarro brings attention to regionalism and agricultural labor prevalent at that time. This image serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by those living off the land. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness not only an exquisite work of art but also gain insight into historical context. It allows us to appreciate both Pissarro's talent as well as his dedication to capturing everyday life through his brushstrokes.
