Painted in 1882, Effet de niege à Osny, “La Ferme à Noël” is a superb example of Pissarro’s stylistic experimentation of the early 1880s. The work represents a transitional moment between the artist’s more spontaneous Impressionist works and the Neo-Impressionist style he would practice later in the decade, which is characterized by small dots of pigment juxtaposed against each other on the canvas. It also showcases Pissarro’s new-found focus on the human figure; like his Impressionist colleagues Monet and Sisley, Pissarro had largely painted landscapes up to this point, so the introduction of the human figure in the center of the composition signals a new direction in his work. The painting also boasts a distinguished provenance, first appearing in the collection of Georges de Bellio, a Romanian-born physician who moved to Paris to study medicine, and became one of the most important early patrons to the impressionist group.
