The Road to Louveciennes

The Road to Louveciennes - Pissarro

I'm reading Midnight in Europe by Alan Furst. On page 186 our hero, Ferrar, is in Manhattan. After dinner with one of senior partners of his law firm, they are talking about the situation in Europe. Ferrar has family in Louveciennes (a small town just west of Paris), and the partner's son mentions "There's a really good Pissaro painting of Louveciennes." So I ask Google for this painting and find that Pissaro painted a bunch of scenes from Louvenciennes. Wikipedia has a list of Pissaro's paintings and it appears that he painted a couple of dozen of Louvenciennes.
