Seine-brug 1773 - 1843

This simple pencil sketch by Georges Michel, titled "Seine-brug" (meaning "Seine bridge"), depicts a bridge over a body of water. Made in the 18th century, the drawing captures the structure of the bridge with its arches and supporting columns. It exemplifies Michel's focus on capturing the essence of architecture in a rapid and expressive style, characteristic of his work. Despite its small size, the drawing conveys a sense of the bridge's grandeur and its place within the Parisian landscape.
