About the piece

Painted around 1900 by Germain Eugène Bonneton, this work captures a vanished corner of Paris along the Bièvre river. The artist uses a somber, earth-toned palette and loose brushwork to evoke the damp, shadowed atmosphere of the rue de Valence, showcasing the city's pre-modern industrial character.
