Camille Pissarro is often called the 'dean of Impressionist painters' and was the only artist to exhibit at all eight Paris Impressionist exhibitions. The area around Ennery and Pontoise was a frequent subject for him, as he found the quiet, agrarian lifestyle of the French countryside to be a perfect canvas for his studies of light and atmosphere.
