The Raised Tarrace of the Pont Neuf and Statue of Henri IV 1901

Camille Pissarro's "The Raised Terrace of the Pont Neuf and Statue of Henri IV" (1901) captures a view of the iconic bridge and statue in Paris. The painting, which is part of the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek collection in Copenhagen, depicts the scene in a distinctively Impressionistic style. Pissarro uses short, broken brushstrokes and vibrant colors to render the light and atmosphere of the city, highlighting the contrast between the grey, cloudy sky and the warm, earthy tones of the buildings and the statue. This work showcases Pissarro's mastery of capturing the fleeting beauty of urban life and the dynamic energy of Parisian architecture.
