About the piece
This late 19th-century oil painting by Edmond Lempereur captures a quiet winter moment overlooking the rooftops of Paris from Montmartre. The artist employs a cool, atmospheric palette of whites and grays, using textured brushwork to evoke the heavy stillness of a snow-covered city.
