About the piece
Painted in 1835 by Étienne Bouhot, this work offers a meticulous view of the Thermes de Cluny from the rue de la Harpe in Paris. The composition highlights the contrast between the weathered Roman ruins and the contemporary wooden structures, with elegant figures providing a sense of scale on the sunlit stone terrace. It is a masterful example of French architectural documentation from the mid-19th century.
