At the Park
1882
Camille Pissarro captures a breezy, everyday family moment in this 1882 sketch, likely done during a visit to Châtillon-sur-Seine. A mother in a blue dress and dark hat sits on a stone bench, keeping a watchful eye on her toddler, who stands beside her in a bright yellow hat. Next to them rests a large, blue baby carriage with prominent spoked wheels, ready for a stroll. The loose, sketchy style is classic Impressionism, focusing on the light and feeling of a sunny afternoon rather than strict, polished details.
