About the piece

Painted in 1878, this work by Édouard Manet depicts the Rue Mosnier from the artist’s studio window during a national holiday. The composition is defined by the vibrant rhythm of French flags against sun-bleached architecture, executed with the rapid, light-filled brushstrokes and high-key palette characteristic of the Impressionist movement.
