Voyages pittoresques et romantiques dans l'ancienne France. Bretagne: Grande rue vieille à Nantes is a 1845 by Eugène Ciceri, a Romanticism work, depicting Street, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
You see a old street in Nantes, with buildings and people. The artist painted this scene in a way that makes it feel quiet and still. It's interesting that the artist chose to show everyday life in a simple way, without adding dramatic effects. Check out the work of Eugène Cicéri, the artist who painted this scene, for more views of 19th century France.
Étienne Eugène Cicéri (27 January 1813 – 20 April 1890) was a French painter, illustrator, engraver and theatrical designer.
