Young Peasant at Her Toilette 1888

"Young Peasant at Her Toilette" is a painting by Camille Pissarro from 1888. It depicts a young woman in a simple white blouse and green skirt, standing in a room with a window and a piece of furniture. The woman is in the midst of her daily routine, likely preparing for the day. The painting utilizes a pointillist style, a technique Pissarro is known for, where tiny dots of color are applied to the canvas, creating a shimmering effect. It is believed that Pissarro was inspired by Impressionism but brought his own unique style and techniques to his work, creating a sense of light and movement through a distinct color palette.
