Sunset landscape 1888

Maximilien Luce's "Sunset Landscape" from 1888 is a captivating depiction of a serene lakeside scene at sunset. The artist's signature Pointillist technique is evident in the small, distinct brushstrokes that create a shimmering effect, particularly in the water and sky. The composition, with its receding lines of trees and the gentle slope leading down to the water, invites the viewer into the peaceful scene. The warm hues of the sunset cast a soft glow over the landscape, creating a sense of tranquility and beauty.
