About the piece
Painted in 1911 by French artist Paul Bocquet, this evocative work captures the serene atmosphere of the river Vesle in November. Through a soft, muted palette and hazy light, Bocquet emphasizes the stillness of the transition into winter, with the rhythmic silhouettes of pollarded trees reflecting in the calm, mirrored surface of the water.
