The river and willows, Eragny 1888

"The River and Willows, Eragny" is a landscape painting created in 1888 by Camille Pissarro, a prominent figure in the Impressionist movement. The artwork depicts a pastoral scene, showcasing a winding river surrounded by lush greenery, likely inspired by the natural beauty of Eragny-sur-Epte, where Pissarro lived and painted during this period. The painting's use of vibrant colors, short brushstrokes, and distinct light and shadow play are characteristic of Pissarro's style, highlighting his fascination with capturing the changing effects of light in nature.
