A painter of sunshine and the scintillating play of light, Pissarro produced many quiet rural landscapes and river scenes; he also painted street scenes in Paris, Le Havre, and London. He was an excellent teacher, counting among his pupils and associates [[Paul Gauguin]] and [[Paul Cézanne]], his son Lucien Pissarro, and the American Impressionist [[Mary Cassatt]].
