Along the Boulevard c. 1894

Maurice Prendergast’s watercolor painting “Along the Boulevard,” c. 1894, depicts a group of women and children, likely on a Parisian street, as they stand or sit near a horse drawn carriage. Prendergast’s Impressionistic style is evident in his use of loose brushstrokes and vivid colors, particularly blues and greens. The artist's unique perspective and vibrant colors contribute to the work's energy and capture the fleeting moments of urban life in early 20th century Paris.
