The Little Factory

The Little Factory (French: La Petite Fabrique) is an oil painting on canvas by the French artist Camille Pissarro, from c. 1862-1865.

[3] La Petite Fabrique marks a transition in Pissarro's work, away from Neoclassical landscape depictions à la Camille Corot and towards Realism with underlying social motives.

In spite of its peacefulness and nonthreatening size, the little factory announces the inexorable transformation (i. e. industrialisation) of the countryside.
