Côte Sainte-Catherine, à Rouen

Camille Pissarro, vers 1884

The artwork depicts a riverside scene with a curve of the river leading towards a bridge in the distance. The horizon is set low, showing the sky filled with textured clouds. There are figures near the water's edge and a person standing on a boat. A cluster of trees, including tall, slender ones, is near the center. The style features sketch-like brushstrokes. The color palette is monochromatic, utilizing shades of gray and sepia. Beyond the river, the landscape slopes upward, with rooftops and more trees.
