Der Steinbruch des Monsieur Pascal bei Nanterre

Französische Malerei 1873–1880, um 1875

The image shows a quarry with workers at various levels, with a sloped embankment covered by a fence. There are men working on different tasks, some standing among stone blocks, two horses harnessed to a cart, workers on scaffolding, and rough stone walls. The painting features precise brushstrokes for textures and a sky depicted with blended strokes. The color palette includes earthy tones for the natural elements and muted blues and grays for the sky.
