The Story in the Margin
In the 1890s, Camille Pissarro began painting cityscapes of Paris from hotel windows, drawn to the bustle of boulevards, squares, and railway stations that had become central to modern urban life. "The Place du Havre, Paris" looks down on the busy square outside the Gare Saint-Lazare, filled with pedestrians, carriages, and the rhythms of a modern rail terminus. These late Parisian series, painted from elevated viewpoints, are considered among Pissarro's most important contributions to Impressionism's engagement with the modern city.
Printed with archival giclée inks on smooth, acid-free 220 gsm gallery-grade fine-art paper; available in multiple sizes.

I wanted something for the hallway that nobody else would have, and this is it.
I have bought three of these now for different rooms. There is a life to The Place du here that flat reproductions usually kill. It came with a handwritten thank you that made the whole thing feel personal. The quality would hold up next to things costing three times as much. It has been worth every minute of the wait.
Thank you for coming back for another one. Repeat customers are the best compliment we get.
This looks like something that cost twice what it did. The energy in The Place du is what drew me to Pissarro in the first place. The finish looks even across the entire surface. This shop has earned a repeat customer.
My mother liked hers so much that I ordered one too. I have wanted something by Pissarro since college, and The Place du was the one to get. The tones are deep and even across the entire surface. It looks right in a house built in 1920 outside Chicago. I am thrilled with the whole experience.
This is genuinely one of the nicest things we own now. The shading in The Place du has a depth I never noticed in books. Every person who has been in the house has asked where it came from.
