About the piece

Painted in 1882 by Paul Lecomte, this composition depicts the Quai de l'Horloge in Paris. The work is defined by the imposing stone turret of the Conciergerie on the left, balanced by an expansive sky of soft, billowing clouds that bathes the cobblestone street and its figures in a luminous, silver-toned light.
