1899, Camille Pissarro, The Tuilleries Gardens, Rainy Weather -- Ashmolean Museum (Oxford)
From the museum label: This is one of sixteen canvases painted from the windows of the apartment Pissarro rented at 204 rue de Rivoli, Paris, from January 1899. The view looks over the Tuileries towards the Seine, with the spires of the church of Ste Clotilde on the right.
The weather was wet and cold, but appropriate for the pearly light and subdued effects Pissarro wished to convey.
