Cour intérieure de l’Abbaye-aux-Bois, 16 rue de Sèvres, en 1906. 7ème arrondissement 1906

This watercolor painting by Frédéric Houbron depicts the courtyard of the Abbaye-aux-Bois in Paris, France. The artwork captures a quiet moment in the courtyard, featuring a small group of figures and a central, lush garden. Houbron's use of muted colors and loose brushstrokes contributes to the tranquil atmosphere of the scene, a signature style of his Impressionistic work. The detailed architecture of the buildings and the delicate rendering of the foliage showcase Houbron's keen eye for observation and ability to convey the beauty of everyday life. The artwork provides a glimpse into the architectural and social life of Paris at the turn of the 20th century.
