More about this artwork

"Jeune Paysanne Se Coiffant" (1891) is a captivating piece by renowned impressionist Camille Pissarro. Depicting a simple, yet profound, everyday moment, this painting features a young peasant woman engaging in the intimate act of arranging her hair. Positioned in a rustic setting, the figure stands in profile, her body language gentle and absorbed within her task.The painting masterfully uses muted yet warm earth tones to evoke a sense of simplicity and humility. Pissarro's brushwork gives texture to the woman's skirt and the wooden elements of the environment such as the chair and the carved cabinet. A narrow window provides a glimpse of the exterior light which bathes the interior and the subject in a soft, diffuse glow, highlighting the quiet dignity of rural life.Pissarro’s focus on rural laborers and their environments speaks to his empathy for the working class and his commitment to documenting their lives, a theme prevalent throughout his work.

Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing. — Camille Pissarro

Camille Pissarro (1830-1903) was born on St.Thomas (now the US Virgin Islands) to a Portuguese father and a Dominican mother. He went to Paris to study art at Ecole des Beaux-Arts. He was an early pioneer of pointillism and neo-impressionism and later became a mentor of many famous impressionist painters including Cezanne, Manet, Renoir, and Gauguin. His paintings depicted rural and urban French landscapes and lifestyle. Many of his works politically captured images of peasants and laborers. Today, he is considered the father of impressionism.
