About the piece

In this 1897 work, Norwegian painter Frits Thaulow captures the fleeting atmosphere of a rainy day in Paris. Utilizing a muted, tonal palette and expressive brushwork, Thaulow depicts the play of light on wet cobblestones and the bustling movement near the Madeleine Church, creating a piece that is both grounded in its specific geography and ethereal in its execution.
