The Seine At Herblay 1890

Maximilien Luce, a leading figure of the Neo-Impressionist movement, painted "The Seine at Herblay" in 1890. The artwork depicts a serene landscape of the Seine River, surrounded by lush greenery and blooming wildflowers. Luce's signature Pointillist technique, where tiny dots of color are placed side-by-side to create a shimmering effect, gives the painting a sense of vibrancy and light. The seemingly random arrangement of dots creates a sense of movement, mimicking the impression of light reflecting on the water and foliage. This work captures the beauty of the French countryside and showcases Luce's mastery of capturing the delicate nuances of light and color.
