About the piece

This 1829 watercolor by David Cox offers a luminous view of Paris, looking toward the Pont Neuf from the Quai de l'Ecole. The artist masterfully captures the rhythmic verticality of the Parisian architecture against a wide, atmospheric sky, while the foreground bustles with the activity of horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians.
