About the piece
Painted in 1825 by Étienne Bouhot, this work depicts the Saint-Pierre de Montmartre church topped with a Chappe semaphore telegraph tower. The composition skillfully balances the massive stone architecture against a serene blue sky, accented by small figures that bring a sense of scale and everyday life to the Parisian landscape.
