Filter list according to painting color palette:

Camille Pissarro was born in St. Thomas, in the West Indies into the family of merchants. First Camille started his career as a businessman, but his obsession with painting changed the direction of his life. In 1855, he came to Paris, where he was impressed by the landscapes of Corot. He painted in Paris and in its suburbs; in 1859, he was admitted to the Salon. In 1859-1861, he attended the Academie Suisse and formed friendships with Monet, Guillaumin and Cezanne. Pissarro sought to express reality by capturing the effects of light rather than attempting "photo realism." A painter of sunshine and the scintillating play of light, he produced many quiet rural landscape paintings and river scenes. He also painted street scenes in Paris, Le Havre, and London. Pissarro was a prolific artist and many of his works hang in the Luxembourg Gallery in Paris, establishing him as one of the Master Artists of the 19th Century.
