Lucien Pissarro (1863 - 1944)
Lucien Pissarro
Lucien Pissarro was a French painter, graphic artist and woodcutter, representative of Pointillism. Son of Camille Pissarro. Since 1890, he lived and worked in England.
Lucien Pissarro initially studied painting under his father. He later developed his own artistic style influenced by the neo-impressionist techniques of Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. Like other Neo-Impressionist painters, Pissarro used broken strokes and divisionism techniques to create light and vivid effects.
The subjects of Pissarro's paintings often included landscapes, rural scenes and coastal vistas, reflecting his love of nature and the countryside. He was particularly fond of capturing the effects of light and atmosphere in his paintings, using a subtle and harmonious colour palette.
