1897
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Evening Train (Le Train du Soir) is a 1897 by Pierre Georges Jeanniot, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows three people in a dimly lit room. A woman in a hat reads a book while a man in a top hat leans over her shoulder. Behind them, another person sits with their back turned, holding a cane. The lines are rough and the shading is uneven, giving it a sketchy, unfinished look. The artist used quick, loose strokes to capture the scene, focusing on movement and mood over detail. This style fits a group of artists who painted everyday life in a fresh, less polished way.
