Flower girl by the Seine, Paris 1889

"Flower Girl by the Seine, Paris" (1889) by Childe Hassam, depicts a Parisian street scene with a flower girl selling her wares. The scene is painted in a Impressionistic style, characterized by loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors, and highlights the interplay of light and atmosphere. The prominent use of muted greens and browns in the foliage and buildings contrasts with the lively pinks and purples of the flowers, capturing the essence of Parisian life. The distant view of the Seine and the silhouette of buildings in the background contribute to the overall sense of place and time.
