Iron Bridges at Asnières is a 1894 oil by Émile Bernard, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
The painting features a serene river scene with a bridge spanning across it. The bridge's stone pillars rise from the water, while the sky above is a soft blend of gray and blue hues. In the foreground, a grassy area is visible, accompanied by a few objects that appear to be boats or canoes. The painting's composition is characterized by its calm and peaceful atmosphere, with the bridge serving as a focal point. The artist's use of color and light adds depth and texture to the scene, creating a sense of tranquility.
