Pissarro's People Details
From the Inside Flap This definitive portrait of Camille Pissarro by one of the world s foremost authorities on Impressionism and French painting reveals the deep connection between Pissarro s humanitarian concerns and his creative output. Throughout his career, the Impressionist artist Camille Pissarro produced a vast oeuvre of paintings, drawings, and prints inspired by his fascination with and commitment to politics. Many of these works reflect the tensions between his anarchist ideals and the realities of life in a capitalist society; however, most examinations of Pissarro have approached his art and politics as separate spheres.

Reviews
This is truly beautiful book. Great reproductions, many pieces that I was un familiar with and a well written and apparently thoroughly researched text. Pissarro was in many ways the most innovative and challenging of the 4 major Impressionists (Monet, Sisley, and Renoir included). He took risks with subject and execution even in the moment when his work was starting to gain real acceptance. His palate is distinct, the surface of his paintings as dense and layered as a tapestry. The author has chosen the pieces for reproduction very wisely. This is one of the best purchases I made this year.
