Place de la Republique 

Edouard Cortes, a French painter known for his urban scenes, captured the bustling atmosphere of Place de la Republique in Paris. The painting, likely created in the early 20th century, depicts a street scene at dusk with horse-drawn carriages, pedestrians, and streetlights illuminating the cobblestone streets. Cortes' use of Impressionist techniques creates a sense of movement and atmospheric light, highlighting the vibrancy of Parisian life.
