Notre Dame 1899

Maximilien Luce, a French artist known for his Neo-Impressionist style, painted "Notre Dame" in 1899. The painting captures the iconic Parisian cathedral from a unique perspective, showcasing its grandeur against the backdrop of the Seine River. Luce's use of distinct brushstrokes, characteristic of Pointillism, creates a vibrant and textured surface, imbuing the cityscape with a dynamic energy. The scene is alive with activity, from the bustling bridge and river traffic to the figures strolling along the quay, offering a glimpse into daily life in late 19th-century Paris.
