About the piece
Painted in 1898 by Edouard Zawiski, this work depicts Rue Cortot in Montmartre as seen from Rue des Saules. The artist uses a soft, muted palette of ochres, greys, and pale blues to render the historic Parisian architecture and rising cobblestone path, perfectly capturing the peaceful, village-like atmosphere of the district at the turn of the century.
