Paris in 1867: View from the Trocadéro is a 1867 ink by Maxime Lalanne, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a busy riverside scene in a city. People walk along a path by the water, while boats move on the river below. Buildings line the shore, and a tall tower stands in the distance. Smoke rises from a factory chimney, and the sky is light with scattered clouds. The artist used fine lines to show every detail, from the crowd’s clothes to the distant buildings. This style was common in etchings of the time. Next, look up etching to see how this technique works.
François Antoine Maxime Lalanne (November 27, 1827 – July 29, 1886) was a French artist known for his etchings and charcoal drawings (fusain).
