Rue Ravignan, Paris 1893

"Rue Ravignan, Paris" is a painting by French artist Maximilien Luce, created in 1893. This work showcases a street scene in the city, capturing the evening atmosphere with a luminous dusk sky and the warm glow of gaslights illuminating the street. Luce, known for his contributions to Neo-Impressionism, applies the technique of pointillism in this painting. He uses small dots of color to create a shimmering, almost mosaic-like effect, bringing depth and vibrancy to the cityscape. The painting's composition emphasizes the interplay of light and shadow, typical of the artist's exploration of modern Parisian life.
