A Selection of Twenty of the Most Picturesque Views in Paris: View of the Louvre and Bridge of the Tuilleries taken from Pont Neuf

Thomas Girtin

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned drawing of a river with a city skyline. The river is wide and calm, with several boats on it. A large building with columns lines the right riverbank, and a bridge is visible in the distance on the left. The riverbank on the right has a walkway with people. Several other buildings are on the left side of the river. The sky is light-colored and featureless. The drawing is detailed, with many lines and shading. The paper is aged and has a rough texture.
