Camille Pissarro paintings consider light and movement to be as important as the paintings themselves. Camille was a French member of the Impressionist group, less well known than Monet and Degas, but almost regarded to be the father figure of the group.
The aim of Camille Pissarro paintings was to accurately record the sensations experienced when one looks at nature. To achieve this, several different styles of working were tried. These differing styles are most evident in the Boulevard Montmartre and Boulevard Montmartre paintings, both completed from almost the same spot of the painting venue.
Two oil paintings among the Camille Pissarro paintings done in London was bought by Paul Durand-Ruel, an art dealer who subsequently became the most important of them all as far as the new school of French Impressionism was concerned. In 1890, Camille painted some ten scenes of central London during a visit to England.
Jan Van Eyck paintings showed mastery in the technique of oil painting, so much so, that Jan Van Eyck was often mistaken to be the inventor of oil painting. Of course, this is farthest from the truth since painting with oil dates back as far as the Indian and Chinese painters of the 5th century.
An excellent example of Jan Van Eyck paintings can be found in the oil panel painting of the Arnolfini Marriage Portrait. The sitters for the painting are assumed to be Giovanni Arnolfini and his pregnant wife. The painting was a representation of a bethrothal in the bedroom of their home.
Jan Van Eyck paintings showed an adherence to realism and acute observation of the small details in the appearance of a sitter. A 1432 painting, Leal Souvenir, introduced motifs that were to become common in Jan's works, i.e., the stone parapet at the base of the canvas. It simulated marked or scarred stone, containing three separate layers of inscription. Each layer is rendered in an illusionistic manner, giving the impression they were chiselled onto the stone.
