Boulevard et la Porte St.Denis 

Edouard Cortes’ “Boulevard et la Porte St.Denis” is a depiction of a bustling Parisian street scene. The painting captures the energy of the city, with people moving about their day, a horse-drawn carriage passing, and the prominent Porte St. Denis visible in the background. Cortes’ signature loose and impressionistic brushwork adds to the liveliness of the scene, capturing the fleeting light of the setting sun and the reflections of streetlamps on the wet pavement. This work exemplifies Cortes' artistic style, known for its focus on Parisian life and characteristic impressionistic approach.
