CAMILLE PISSARRO. Two Young Peasant Women

Two Young Peasant Women. Artist: Camille Pissarro (French, Charlotte Amalie, Saint Thomas 1830-1903 Paris). Dimensions: 35 1/4 x 45 7/8 in. (89.5 x 116.5 cm). Date: 1891-92.
By virtue of their size, placement, and quiet dignity, these youthful laborers dominate the landscape setting--an open field near Pissarro's house at Éragny. Sympathetic to anarchist ideals, the artist wanted to preserve the values of agrarian society that were being threatened by the rapid industrialization of France. He began this picture in summer 1891 and completed it in mid-January 1892, a month before the opening of a major exhibition of his work organized by his dealer Joseph Durand-Ruel. Many of the fifty paintings were sold from the show, but Pissarro kept this canvas and gave it to his wife.
