Le Pont Marie

Eugène Atget

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a stone bridge spanning across a river, with a cityscape in the background. The bridge is made of large rectangular stones and its arches are reflected in the water. Trees frame parts of the distant buildings. Small boats are tethered near a wooden structure on the water. The color palette is sepia, accentuating the vintage feel and textures of the elements in the scene.
