About the piece
Created in 1902 by Ferdinand Marks, this evocative painting depicts a leisurely afternoon on the Boulevard Gouvion-Saint-Cyr. Through loose brushwork and a luminous, soft-toned palette, the artist masterfully captures the movement of the clouds and the gentle play of light across the grassy slopes and figures of late Belle Époque Paris.
