Kensington Gardens

Camille Pissarro

Painted toward the end of the 19th century, Pissarro used a more relaxed Pointillist technique to create this picture of city life in London. Nannies watch little children playing in the foreground while others stroll through the lush green grass of Kensington Gardens. This piece is a welcome breath of fresh air that reminds us of our beautiful landscape outside AMFA.
