The Lock at Pontoise

Camille Pissarro

Cleveland Museum of Art

The painting depicts a landscape with a body of water in the foreground and a town in the background. The water is painted in shades of green and gray, reflecting the sky above. A concrete structure protrudes into the water on the right side. A boat is positioned near the center of the image. The town in the background features several buildings with varying roof colors, including red, brown, and gray. Trees line the water's edge and are scattered throughout the town. The sky is blue with white and gray clouds. The painting style is impressionist.
