A Parisian Balcony 1908

"A Parisian Balcony" (1908) by Konstantin Korovin captures a Parisian night scene through the window of a balcony. The impressionistic brushstrokes and the muted palette of the painting create a sense of intimacy and a fleeting moment in time. The artist's focus on the bouquet of flowers on the balcony and the blurry city lights in the distance emphasizes the contrast between the natural and the urban, a theme that has resonated with viewers for over a century.
