About the piece

Painted around 1880, 'Bei der Jonction' is an early work by the renowned Swiss painter Ferdinand Hodler. The scene depicts the Jonction, where the Rhône and Arve rivers meet in Geneva, rendered in a soft, atmospheric palette of blues, greens, and ochres. Hodler’s textured brushwork and interest in parallelism are already beginning to emerge in this serene study of nature's quiet rhythms.
