Sunrise on the Sea 1883

"Sunrise on the Sea" is a pastel on paper work by Camille Pissarro, a noted Impressionist artist, created in 1883. The painting depicts a sunrise over the sea as seen from a coastal cliff, with the rising sun radiating a warm, yellow light. Pissarro, known for his plein air landscapes, utilized short, broken brushstrokes and a vibrant palette to capture the ephemeral beauty of the scene. The artwork, currently in a private collection, showcases Pissarro's mastery of color and light, exemplifying his Impressionist style.
