About the piece

In 'Mist on the River,' French artist Jean-Charles Cazin masterfully employs the Tonalist style to capture a moment of profound stillness. Painted around 1889, the work focuses on the play of light as a pale sun breaks through heavy haze, illuminating a bed of lily pads in the foreground while the dark forms of trees stand in soft focus against the luminous grey sky.
