拍品专文

Pissarro painted and drew outdoors in Montmorency, a town about forty miles west of Paris, during the summers of 1856-1859. Pissarro appears to have begun his paintings without making preliminary studies, and his landscape drawings were done as independent exercises, often showing the scene in carefully observed detail. There is a related drawing in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford (Pissarro Collection, catalogue no. 50).
