Banks of the Seine is a 1880 unspecified by Unknown, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
You see a quiet riverbank in France, trees leaning over the water, a few small boats tied up, and a pale sky. No one knows who painted it, but the loose brushstrokes and soft light feel like the work of artists who painted outdoors in the 1800s. Experts once thought it might be by Eugène Boudin, but the real artist remains a mystery. If you like this scene, look up other paintings of france, 19th century, mod euro.
Although this scene was once thought to have been painted by Eugéne Boudin (1824–1898), its creator has yet to be identified.
The Seine River, especially the mid-Seine valley where Claude Monet lived, is known for being a source of inspiration and subject matter for Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists.
