After a short period dedicated to Pointillism, Camille Pissarro gave up this time-consuming technique around 1890. He returned to a freer style of painting that enabled him to capture impressions of light and weather conditions more quickly. Here the intense brightness of the setting sun lends a celebratory atmosphere to the evening scene.
