Untitled is a 1887 oil by Émile Bernard, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a bridge over a river, with a train on it and two people standing on the bank. The bridge is light gray and has three arches, with a dark gray train on top. The two people are wearing long coats and hats, and are standing on a path that runs along the riverbank. The river is light blue-green and reflects the bridge and train. In the foreground, there are some green and brown shapes that might be buildings or hills. The sky above is light gray and cloudy. The painting has a lot of muted colors and soft brushstrokes, which gives it a calm and peaceful feel. The painting is reminiscent of the Impressionism movement, which focused on capturing everyday life and landscapes in a realistic way.
Émile Henri Bernard (French pronunciation: ; 28 April 1868 – 16 April 1941) was a French Post-Impressionist painter and writer, who had artistic friendships with Vincent van Gogh, Paul Gauguin and Eugène Boch, and at a later time, Paul Cézanne.
