La Maison de la folie à Eragny is a painting by Camille Pissarro created in 1884, the year the artist permanently moved to Eragny-sur-Epte, a small village in Normandy. The work marks an important phase in Pissarro's career: after having adhered to the Impressionist movement from the beginning, during this period the artist opened up to new compositional experiments while maintaining his interest in rural life and everyday landscapes. The house depicted was a residence near the one Pissarro purchased with the help of Claude Monet, and would become a recurring subject in his later works.

In the context of late-nineteenth-century French painting, this painting fits into a period of evolution in the Impressionist language, which increasingly focused on formal structure and atmospheric rendering. Pissarro, considered a bridge between Impressionism and later movements (such as Neo-Impressionism), successfully combined live observation with a reflection on composition and color. This painting witnesses this transitional phase, offering an image of the French countryside and a glimpse into the artistic and social life of a time of transformation.
