About the piece

Painted in 1891 during his stay in Paris, Edvard Munch's 'Rue de Rivoli' demonstrates his command of Impressionist light and brushwork. The high-angle perspective looks down upon the bustling thoroughfare, where flickering strokes of paint evoke the constant motion of pedestrians and carriages against the sunlit architecture of the city.
