About the piece

Painted in 1910 by Amédée-Julien Marcel-Clément, this work captures the elegant bustle of Paris's Bonne Nouvelle Boulevard at night. The artist masterfully uses a muted tonal palette to emphasize the golden glow of streetlights and shopfronts as they shimmer across the rain-slicked pavement, while figures in period attire and a horse-drawn carriage add to the historic charm.
