Camille Pissarro paintings in Toronto

Toronto's Art Gallery of Ontario holds 3 works by Camille Pissarro (1830–1903) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.

Pissarro was the most consistent Impressionist, painting French villages, Parisian boulevards, and market scenes through every season and hour. In person, his canvases reveal the extraordinary sensitivity of his eye — subtle variations in light and atmosphere that make each painting both specific and universal.
