Le Boulevard des Italiens

Französische Grafik 1903–1929, 1908

The image depicts a street scene with a high vantage point. The background shows buildings with chimneys and small windows, partially hidden by trees. The brushstrokes are soft and sketch-like, creating movement. The color palette is subdued with shades of brown, beige, and muted blues and greens. In the foreground, a dog walks on cobblestones, while people in period clothing gather. A horse-drawn carriage moves through the scene. In the distance, there are balconies and foliage.
