About the piece

Painted around 1815, Jean-Baptiste-Gabriel Langlacé captures the evolving skyline of Paris from the southern heights of Gentilly. The composition features the iconic dome of the Panthéon and other landmarks emerging from a detailed urban horizon, set against a vast, dramatic sky and pastoral foreground with a lone windmill.
