Passenger Boat on the Seine 1887

"Passenger Boat on the Seine" is an etching by American artist Charles Adams Platt, created in 1887. The print, currently housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, depicts a tranquil scene on the Seine River in France. Platt masterfully captures the subtle details of the river's current, reflected light, and the boats along the dock. His use of delicate lines and tonal variations creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, inviting viewers to imagine the gentle sounds and smells of the Parisian waterfront.
