Ploughland 1874

Camille Pissarro's "Ploughland" (1874) depicts a rural scene with a freshly plowed field in the foreground. The loose brushstrokes and muted color palette evoke the Impressionist style, a movement Pissarro was a pioneer of. The landscape features a line of trees on a hill in the background and a lone plow resting in the field, suggesting the day's work is done. The painting captures the tranquility and beauty of the French countryside, reflecting Pissarro's interest in depicting the lives of ordinary people and their connection to nature. "Ploughland" is currently on display at the Pushkin Museum in Moscow.
