About the piece
Painted in 1822 by Edmé-François Daubigny, this work captures the Fontaine des Innocents in Paris under a dramatic night effect. The deep, cool tones of the moonlit sky contrast with the warm, localized glow of street lamps and building windows, creating a sophisticated and moody urban landscape that exemplifies early 19th-century French romanticism.
