Barges on the Seine is a 1897 oil by Stanisław Wyspiański, a Post-Impressionism work, held at National Museum in Kraków.
This painting depicts a serene landscape of barges on the Seine River. The boats are moored in the foreground, with a cityscape visible in the background. The scene is rendered in muted colors, with a focus on blues and greens. A notable detail in the painting is the use of loose brushstrokes to capture the texture of the water and the atmosphere of the scene. This technique adds a sense of movement and energy to the otherwise tranquil depiction.
