Le Bassin de la Villette

Auguste Louis Lepère

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a harbor scene. A large boat is in the foreground, showing a partially open cargo hold with baskets and other items visible inside. Several people are on or near the boat. In the background, there are more boats docked at the harbor, with buildings and a bridge visible along the shore. The sky appears cloudy and overcast. The artwork is signed by Camille Pissarro in the bottom-right corner. The title of the piece, "Le Bassin de la Villette," is by artist Auguste Louis Lepère.
