A Selection of Twenty of the Most Picturesque Views in Paris: View of the Palace & Village of Choisi on the Banks of the Seine

Thomas Girtin

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned drawing of a river scene. A river runs horizontally across the image. On the left bank, a horse-drawn wagon and people are on the grassy shore. A small wooden boat sits in the water near the shore. On the right bank, a steep dirt slope leads up to buildings. A bridge with arches spans the river in the background. Large buildings are on the left side of the image, beyond the bridge. The sky is cloudy.
