View of Pontoise (Vue de Pontoise)

Camille Pissarro, 1885

The image shows a hilly landscape with small clustered houses and a church tower. The horizon is positioned in the upper third of the image, separating the sky from the landscape. The sky has scattered clouds. The brushstrokes in the landscape are gestural and sketch-like. The color palette is monochromatic, with shades of beige and soft brown. There is a field or open area with vegetation and paths in the foreground, and buildings on a slope in the distance.
