Pissarro frequently depicted the French countryside, and the present drawing is a landscape in Montfoucault, a small village in Mayenne, between Normandy and Brittany. Ludovic Piette, a close friend of the artist, lived in Montfoucault, and Pissarro and his family often stayed at the Piette home between 1864 and 1876.
