About the piece

Painted in 1902 by Ferdinand Marks, this work depicts the fortifications along Boulevard Gouvion-Saint-Cyr in Paris. Marks utilizes a gestural Post-Impressionist technique to render the shifting light of a cloudy sky and the verdant greens of the urban parkland, resulting in a composition that feels both grounded and atmospheric.
