Boulevard de la Madeleine 

French artist Antoine Blanchard (1910-1988) painted this impressionistic depiction of a Parisian street, likely Boulevard de la Madeleine, blanketed in snow. The artist captures the soft, ethereal glow of the streetlamps and the cold, crystalline atmosphere of the winter evening. The scene is filled with bustling activity as pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages navigate the snowy streets, suggesting a lively Parisian social scene. The painting's loose, brushwork and vibrant colors evoke the charm of Paris, a popular subject for Blanchard throughout his career.
