Poissy, Madame Dillon 1893

"Poissy, Madame Dillon" (1893) by Maximilien Luce captures a serene outdoor scene. A woman in a blue dress stands beside a tree, her gaze directed downwards, while a child sits on the ground in a similar blue dress. The painting's Impressionist style, characterized by visible brushstrokes and a focus on light and color, is exemplified by the dappled sunlight filtering through the leaves and illuminating the figures. Luce was known for his depictions of the French countryside and his ability to convey the beauty of everyday life through his art.
