Street Scene, Paris by Pierre Bonnard is one of those images that never dates. Our studio recreates it as a hand painted oil painting — textured, color-rich, and ready to hang as canvas wall art in a hallway, study, or reception area.
SCèNE DE RUE, PARIS
circa 1918
Oil on canvas
In Scène de rue, Paris, Bonnard’s fascination with the spectacle of urban modernity is very apparent. Montmartre and the streets of Paris served the artist as a colourful source of inspiration. The bustle of the Parisian crowd and the wonderful vibrancy of the night scene in the present work is captured in small passages of colour, depicting standing figures in their evening dress.
Henry Dauberville writes of Bonnard’s street scenes: ‘Ses scènes de la rue portant la marque d’un humour empreint de joie de vivre: chevaux, chiens, vendeuses, marchandes des quatre-saisons, toute une jeunesse rieuse qui fourmille dans le quartier des Batignolles et jusqu’à la Place Clichy, tout est peint avec une gentillesse un peu moqueuse. Premières émotions artistiques d’un jeune peintre qui veut exprimer la gaieté de ce Paris 1900, animé vivant, bon enfant’ (J. and H. Dauberville, op. cit., vol. I, pp. 36 & 37).
Collectors often choose this cityscape image when searching for cityscape oil painting that feels substantial rather than decorative or disposable.
Each canvas is painted entirely by hand with professional oil paints on artist-grade cotton canvas. No printing, giclée, or digital imaging is used at any stage, so the surface keeps the slight relief and color variation of real brushwork.
This cityscape oil painting wall decor is equally at home in a residence, a boutique hotel, or a professional office. Its post-impressionist character makes it a safe, distinctive gift for anyone furnishing a hallway.
