Pissarro was seen as the patriarch of the Impressionist movement, and was constantly encouraging younger artists and managing the artistic revolution’s progress. After several rejections by the Salon, Camille Pissarro and his colleagues decided to hold their own independent exhibition of their Impressionist works. The first of these independent shows was held in 1874 and included Pissarro, Monet, Renoir, Sisley, Edgar Degas, and Berthe Morisot. Pissarro participated in all eight of the independent exhibitions from 1874-86, the only artist to do so. "Farmer with Cows in a Landscape" he signed with his initials, and was purchased by the present owner directly from the Pissarro family about 5 years ago. The pencil drawing is 3.5 x 5 7/8 inches; with frame, it is 11x13.5.
