The Banks of the Seine is a 1881 oil by Nathaniel Hone the Younger, held at National Gallery of Ireland.
The painting depicts a serene landscape, with a river flowing through the center and trees lining its banks. In the foreground, a figure sits on the grassy bank, while another figure stands near the water's edge. The artist's use of oil paint creates a sense of depth and texture, drawing the viewer's eye into the tranquil scene. The brushstrokes are visible, adding a sense of movement and energy to the otherwise calm atmosphere. This painting is reminiscent of the works of Nathaniel Hone the Younger, an artist known for his landscapes and portraits.
