Artist biography
Paulémile Pissarro, Camille’s youngest son, was born in Eragny in 1884. He was brought up in the artistic environment of the family home there, and, encouraged by his father, began drawing at an early age. Paulémile’s godfather was Claude Monet, who became his teacher and close friend, particularly after Camille’s death in 1903.
In 1905, Paulémile exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants for the first time, showing an Impressionist landscape entitled Bords de l’Epte à Eragny. Although his father had supported his desire to be an artist, his mother was eager for him to learn a more practical trade. In 1908, Paulémile put aside his artistic pursuits to work as an automobile mechanic and test-driver, then as a lace and textile designer, allowing him only a little time to paint. While Paulémile was still working at the lace factory, his brother, Lucien, who lived in London, asked him to send over some watercolours, and the sale of these encouraged Paulémile to leave the factory and dedicate himself to painting.
By the 1920s, Paulémile had become an established Post-Impressionist artist in his own right, sharing a studio with Kees Van Dongen and spending the summer months escaping from Paris with him and Maurice de Vlaminck. In 1924, Paulémile moved to Lyons-la-Foret, a small town near Eragny, where he painted his surroundings with great pleasure, returning again and again to the placid waters of the River Epte, winding its way among willows, meadows and hills.
During the late 1920s and early 1930s, Paulémile reached the peak of his artistic development, arriving at the individual style for which he is best known. In 1930, he visited an area called Swiss Normandy and instantly fell in love with this part of the Calvados region, especially the River Orne that runs through the valley adjacent to the villages of Clécy and le Vey. The combination of blue hills and green meadows, separated by the calm waters of the river, offered Paulémile a new setting for his work. Paulémile moved in 1935 with his second wife, Yvonne Beaupel, to Clécy, where he would remain until his death.
In 1967, Paulémile had his first one-man show in the United States at Wally Findlay Galleries in New York. This led to widespread recognition and a degree of professional success that few Pissarro artists have known during their lifetime. Since his death in 1972, Paulémile’s paintings have been exhibited around the world, and interest in his work continues to grow.

Paul Emile Pissarro
Paul Émile Pissarro (1884–1972) was a French painter and the youngest son of the renowned Impressionist Camille Pissarro. Known as “Paulémile,” he grew up surrounded by artistic innovation and was deeply influenced by his father’s Impressionist style and philosophy. However, he later developed his own artistic voice, primarily within the Post-Impressionist and Fauvist movements. Paulémile’s early artistic training came from his father and contemporaries like Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. This exposure instilled in him a love for plein air painting and the vibrant use of color, traits that became hallmarks of his work. His depictions of rural landscapes, especially those of Normandy and the French countryside, reveal his sensitivity to light, texture, and seasonal changes. While initially working in his family’s tradition, Paulémile gradually incorporated Fauvist influences, embracing bolder, more expressive color palettes. His style also reflected the growing trend toward modernism in the early 20th century. His paintings exhibit a harmony between Impressionist principles and more dynamic, emotive compositions. In addition to painting, Paulémile collaborated with the art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel, whose support solidified his career. Despite his father’s towering legacy, Paulémile maintained a consistent artistic output, earning recognition in his own right through exhibitions in Paris and abroad. Paul Émile Pissarro’s contributions lie in his ability to bridge Impressionism with early modernist sensibilities, ensuring the vitality of landscape painting well into the 20th century. His work continues to be celebrated for its vibrancy and lyrical quality.
