Notre-Dame de Paris 1854

Johan Barthold Jongkind's "Notre-Dame de Paris" (1854) is a captivating depiction of the iconic Parisian landmark. This oil on canvas painting captures the grandeur of the cathedral as it stands majestically beside the Seine River. Jongkind, known for his atmospheric landscapes, masterfully conveys the soft light and hazy ambiance of a Parisian afternoon. The perspective from the bridge allows viewers to appreciate the cathedral's architectural details, while the subtle brushstrokes add a sense of movement to the river and the surrounding buildings. Today, "Notre-Dame de Paris" resides in the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, France.
