Paris Street Scene

Robert Henri

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a street view in an urban setting with people and horse-drawn carriages. The horizon is high with buildings and chimneys in the background. The sketch features dynamic lines capturing movement. The color scheme is monochromatic with black ink on a white background. People walk, and carriages are depicted with detail. Trees line the street, leading to the distance. Buildings on both sides are detailed with hatching and cross-hatching for shadow and depth.
