The travelers
1898
Camille Pissarro is famous for his sunny Impressionist fields, but here he gets real about rural poverty. Titled *Les trimardeurs* (The Tramps), this 1898 print shows a weary family hiking down a country road, the father crushed under a giant sack of belongings while a small child trails behind. It’s a powerful glimpse into Pissarro’s anarchist beliefs—he wasn't just painting pretty trees; he was deeply empathetic to the working class and the outcasts of society, capturing their exhaustion with raw, sketchy lines.
