Rue de Rivoli 

Edouard Cortes' "Rue de Rivoli" depicts a bustling Parisian street scene, capturing the energy of the city during the early 20th century. The artist's use of loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors creates a sense of movement and light, drawing the viewer into the heart of the action. The painting features horse-drawn carriages, pedestrians, and street lamps, all arranged in a balanced composition that conveys the everyday life of a major European capital. Cortes' work exemplifies the Impressionist style, capturing the fleeting beauty of a moment in time through the use of color and light.
