About the piece
Painted in 1854, this evocative oil painting by Johan Jongkind captures the ethereal beauty of Paris at night. The towers of Notre-Dame loom darkly against a moonlit sky, while the Seine river reflects the cool celestial glow and the warm flickers of nearby gaslight, showcasing the artist's pre-impressionist mastery of light and atmosphere.
