Still Life 1867

Camille Pissarro's "Still Life" (1867) exemplifies his early Impressionist style. The painting depicts a simple arrangement of everyday objects, such as a jug of wine, apples, bread, and a bowl, on a table with a tablecloth. The loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors capture the fleeting effects of light. The emphasis on the ordinary, the play of light and shadow, and the visible brushstrokes are characteristic of Pissarro's early Impressionist works. This "Still Life" is a testament to Pissarro's exploration of the beauty found in everyday life.
