About the piece

Painted in 1911, this street scene of Rue du Mont-Cenis exemplifies Maurice Utrillo's celebrated 'White Period.' The composition features a cluster of weathered white buildings with terracotta roofs, anchored by a tall, elegant street lamp and a dark wooden fence. A small figure adds a touch of narrative life to this tranquil, textured urban landscape from the Montmartre district.
