The celebrated painter Camille Pissarro (1830-1903) occupied a central place in the artistic scene of his time: a founding member of the new school of French painting, he was a close friend of Monet, a longtime associate in Degas's and Mary Cassatt's experimental work, a support to CeÌzanne and Gauguin, and a comfort to Van Gogh, and was backed by the great Parisian art dealer Durand-Ruel throughout his career. Nevertheless, he felt a persistent sense of being set apart, different, and hard to classify. Settled in France from the age of twenty-five but born in the Caribbean, he was not French and what is more he was Jewish. Although a resolute atheist who never interjected political or religious messages in his art, he was fully aware of the consequences of his lineage. Drawing on Pissarro's considerable body of work and a vast collection of letters that show his unrestrained thoughts, Anka Muhlstein offers a nuanced, intimate portrait of the artist whose independent spirit fostered a system encouraging freedom and autonomy"-- $c Provided by publisher. 546 $a In English, translated from the French. 600 10 $a Pissarro, Camille, $d 1830-1903. 650 0 $a Painters $z France $v Biography. 650 6 $a Peintres $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378258 $z France $0 (CaQQLa)201-0452039 $v Biographies. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378258 700 1 $a Hunter, Adriana, $e translator. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Muhlstein, Anka. $t Camille Pissarro $d New York : Other Press, [2023] $z 9781635421712 $w (DLC) 2023000621 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240417024640.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240305042401.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=51006370AAD111EE853AF3262BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
