Camille Pissarro painted the Marne river valley east of Paris on several occasions, drawn like many Impressionists to the quiet, unglamorous landscape of provincial France rather than fashionable resorts. "The Banks of the Marne in Winter" reflects his consistent interest in rural land under working conditions — bare trees, plowed fields, cold light — rendered with the careful tonal control that marked his early Impressionist period. Pissarro's winter landscapes helped establish snow and overcast light as serious subjects for modern painting.
Printed edge to edge on a soft, durable woven area rug with a comfortable, non-slip feel.

Four stars because it is excellent and I paid a little more than I wanted to. The hand of Pissarro is visible in The Banks of the Marne in Winter in a way I did not expect at this price. I have bought two more since this one arrived. It was easy to find the right size on the product page, which saved me a return.
Thanks for this. Happy the colors landed the way they should, since that is the part we fuss over most.
The listing photos are flattering without being dishonest. The texture that makes Pissarro interesting is only half there in The Banks of the Marne in Winter.
