About the piece

Dating to around 1840, this atmospheric painting depicts the rural character of Montmartre before its urban transformation. A lone rider pauses at a stone abreuvoir, or watering trough, set against a sweeping horizon and a dramatic, cloud-filled sky that reflects the French naturalist landscape tradition.
