1889
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Le Palais des Arts Liberaux, Extérieur is a 1889 by Auguste Lepère, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a lively scene outside a grand building with a large dome. People are gathered around a fountain, and some are walking or standing near the water. In the foreground, a woman in a long dress and hat is walking down stairs, while others are standing or sitting on the stairs or near the fountain. The artist has used a range of colors to capture the scene, from the dark tones of the building to the lighter shades of the people's clothing. The overall effect is one of energy and movement, as if the scene is unfolding before our eyes.
