View from the Harbour in Dieppe

The artwork View from the Harbour in Dieppe is a painting, created in 1902 by Camille Pissarro. It is currently held at the Museum of Dieppe (Castle). The painting measures 65 cm × 53.5 cm (25.6 in × 21.1 in).

The painting depicts a bustling harbor scene in Dieppe, France. The viewpoint is slightly elevated, looking down towards the water. Several sailboats are docked or sailing in the harbor, with white sails contrasting against the blue water. The town stretches along the coastline, with buildings clustered together and a church spire visible in the distance. White cliffs rise prominently in the background, adding a dramatic element to the landscape.

On the foreground shore, a crowd of people, rendered as small figures, gathers along the water's edge. Their presence suggests a lively atmosphere, perhaps a festival or a regatta. The overall palette is warm and inviting, capturing the vibrancy of a sunny day at the harbor. Pissarro's signature Impressionistic style is evident in the loose brushstrokes and the emphasis on capturing the fleeting effects of light and color.
