About the piece
Painted during his time in Paris, this work shows Vincent van Gogh exploring the rural charm of Montmartre before it became fully urbanized. The composition features figures ascending a wooden-fenced staircase, rendered in a palette of earthy greens and ochres that highlights his transition from the dark tones of his Dutch period toward the more vibrant style of his later career.
