Rue de l'epicerie at Rouen, on a Grey Morning 1898

Camille Pissarro's "Rue de l'epicerie at Rouen, on a Grey Morning" (1898) is a quintessential example of Impressionism, characterized by its loose brushstrokes and focus on capturing the fleeting effects of light and atmosphere. This depiction of a street scene in Rouen features the iconic Rouen Cathedral, its spires towering over the cityscape. Pissarro's signature pointillist technique, evident in the small, distinct brushstrokes, contributes to the overall vibrancy and textured quality of the painting. The scene evokes a sense of urban life, with figures strolling through the street, suggesting the daily rhythms of the city.
