The Seine, Paris 1924

"The Seine, Paris" is a 1924 etching by American artist Caroline Helena Armington (1875-1939). The print, likely made during a trip to Europe, captures a quintessential Parisian scene: a view of the Seine River, a bridge, and boats. Armington's masterful use of line and detail evokes the atmosphere of the city, with the distinctive architecture of the Parisian skyline in the distance. The etching's soft, atmospheric qualities are reminiscent of Impressionist painting, highlighting the delicate play of light on the water and the buildings.
