Pissarro-The Pont Neuf Snow Effect

Impressionism

The story

1901. Pissarro is 70, and for the first time in his life, money is not the main problem. So he treats himself to something he never could before. A rented flat on Place Dauphine, with a window right above the Pont Neuf. Not cheap, even then. But he wanted that view, and he kept it for a couple of years. From up there, he could paint the whole thing without being jostled on the bridge. The carriages, the umbrellas, the roofs, all under a pink winter sky.
