Workers in the Fields 1897

"Workers in the Fields" is a watercolor painting by Camille Pissarro, created in 1897. This artwork exemplifies the Impressionist style with its loose brushstrokes and focus on capturing the fleeting effects of light and color. The composition depicts two workers in a field, their forms rendered with a sense of immediacy and movement, characteristic of Pissarro's later works. The vibrant hues of yellow, green, and blue evoke the warmth of the sun and the lushness of the landscape, capturing the essence of a summer day in the countryside. Pissarro's keen observation of nature and his ability to convey the human experience through the language of color are evident in this work, which is a testament to his mastery of Impressionism.
