CAMILLE PISSARRO AND HIS WORLD
Camille Pissarro (1830-1903) a Danish-French Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist painter, was born on the island of St. Thomas in the West Indies.
Paying tribute to this “Dean of Impressionist Painters” the lecture discusses the developments of Pissarro’s works during the second half of the nineteenth century with his important contributions to both Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. The influence of his balanced, kind and warm-hearted personality, was appreciated by not only the Impressionists, but all four of the major Post-Impressionists, Seurat, Cézanne, Van Gogh and Gauguin.
