Landscape with a Lock 1885

Albert Dubois-Pillet's "Landscape with a Lock" (1885) is a painting characterized by its divisionist style, using distinct dots of color to create an impression of light and atmosphere. The scene, likely a river landscape, is bathed in a soft, pastel light, with the sky dominated by a luminous yellow-orange hue. The trees and foliage in the foreground are depicted in a dark silhouette, while the water surface is barely visible in the subtle brushstrokes. The painting is a testament to Dubois-Pillet's mastery of this technique, creating a sense of tranquility and beauty.
