About the piece
Created around 1900, this atmospheric work depicts the Bièvre canal as it once flowed between the Rue Pascal and Rue Broca in Paris. The artist utilizes a dramatic tonal palette, contrasting the dark, heavy silhouettes of the riverside architecture against a luminous, silver-grey sky and its soft reflection in the still water.
