In 1901, Camille Pissarro settled in Dieppe in a small hotel
room across from the Church of Saint-Jacques, a remarkable Gothic
structure and the square, which from time immemorial had been used
as a market. The series created in Dieppe in 1901 consists of seven
canvases, one of them is The Fair in Dieppe from the Krebs
collection, in which the artist discovered a way not only to convey
the impression of busy town life, but to create an unusually
integrated rhythmic structure through a flawlessly calculated
interplay of geometric details.
