Open 18 February – 12 June 2022
This major exhibition, of works drawn from the Ashmolean's collections as well as international loans, spans Pissarro's entire career.
Camille Pissarro (1830–1903) is one of the
most celebrated artists of 19th-century France and a central figure in
Impressionism. Considered a father-figure to many in the movement, his work was
enormously influential for many artists, including Claude Monet and Paul
Cézanne.
It features 120 works, 80 by Pissarro and 40
by his friends and contemporaries, with eight paintings on display for the
first time in this country. The exhibition draws on the Ashmolean's Pissarro
archive, the world’s largest collection devoted to an Impressionist artist,
revealing intimate and fascinating details about Pissarro, his artist-friends
and relatives. It aims to show him as the galvanising force that propelled
modern art forward and without whom there would have been no Impressionism.
