About the piece

Painted in 1815 by Étienne Bouhot, this atmospheric work depicts the Cour Sainte-Catherine in Paris. The composition utilizes a dramatic, shadowed foreground arch to frame the sunlit stone buildings and cobblestones beyond, where figures in period dress go about their daily routines under a soft, cloud-dappled sky.
