About the piece

This 1780 oil painting by Alexandre Jean Noël captures a bustling afternoon on the banks of the Seine. Figures populate the foreground riverbank while the majestic facade of the Louvre and the Pont Royal bridge stretch across the horizon beneath an expansive, atmospheric sky typical of the period's veduta style.
