About the piece

Painted around 1855, this oil study by Félix Ziem captures the serene, hazy atmosphere of twilight over a river. The composition features small figures and boats along a shadowed bank, set against a luminous sky that showcases Ziem's mastery of light and color in the tradition of the Barbizon school.
