A Woman Walking along a Country Road (La Femme sur la Route) 1879

Camille Pissarro's etching "A Woman Walking along a Country Road" (1879) depicts a single figure walking along a rural path. The artist utilizes a textured, stipple-like technique to render the scene, conveying the rough terrain and the hazy atmosphere. Pissarro, a leading Impressionist, often explored the everyday scenes of rural life, capturing fleeting moments of natural light and movement. This etching reflects his interest in the beauty of simple subjects and the effects of atmospheric perspective, characteristics that would define his work in the later years.
