The ferry at the Varenne-Saint-Hilaire is a painting by Camille Pissarro depicting a river crossing on the Marne, near the Parisian suburb of Saint-Maur-des-Fossés. The work documents a moment of everyday life: the ferry (bac) that connects the banks, animated by figures and immersed in a tranquil, luminous landscape. With his customary mastery, Pissarro captures the light reflected on the water and the calm atmosphere of the scene, using a loose, vibrant brushstroke that characterizes the full maturity of his Impressionist style.
Created in the 1880s, the painting reflects Pissarro's interest in transforming urban and suburban landscapes, as well as his attention to work and the simple life. In Bac à la Varenne-Saint-Hilaire, the discreet modernity of a river crossing coexists harmoniously with the natural beauty of the setting. The work is a precious testimony to the artist's humanist vision and his commitment to representing everyday reality with poetry and depth.
