About the piece
Painted in 1901, this work is a classic example of Henri Rousseau's 'naive' or primitive style. The self-taught artist presents the outskirts of Paris with a dreamlike clarity, featuring flat planes of color, meticulous detail, and a lack of traditional perspective that gives the scene its timeless, modern appeal.
