Place Clichy 1922

Pierre Bonnard's "Place Clichy" (1922) is a striking lithograph capturing the Parisian streetscape at night. The artist, known for his use of color and Impressionistic style, depicts three women in the foreground, their faces obscured by the shadows of their hats. The bustling cityscape behind them is suggested through blurred lines and muted hues, creating a sense of urban energy and anonymity. Bonnard’s depiction of Place Clichy, a vibrant area of Paris, offers viewers a glimpse into the everyday lives of its inhabitants. The work is held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
