Peasant Gathering Grass 1881

Camille Pissarro's 1881 painting "Peasant Gathering Grass" depicts a woman in a blue dress and white head covering bent over, gathering grass in a field. The work is characteristic of Pissarro's pointillist style, using small, distinct dots of color to create an impression of light and movement. This work, along with many others by Pissarro, is considered an important contribution to the Impressionist movement. The work is currently in a private collection.
