Painted by Camille Pissarro near the end of his life, The Pont Neuf: A Winter
Morning carries the vision of the French Impressionists into the
twentieth century. The artist is said to have painted it from the window of his
apartment on the Ile de la Cité in Paris.
The painting poignantly contrasts the momentary effects of a winter sunrise with
the lasting monuments of the city. The bare tree branches,
the paving stones, and the distant buildings are briefly touched by the
still-hidden sun, which warms and softens the gray chill with a
suffused glow. As people go about their early-morning business and the river
Seine flows strongly but calmly by, everything is dappled with
pink or red lights and blue shadows or reflections from the sky.
The unusually pristine condition of this painting, on a canvas that has never
been relined, provides a rare opportunity to appreciate the
textured surface, which carries an air of spontaneity for all its analytical
craft.
