Description: In this tranquil scene, Maurice Mazeilie captures a Parisian bridge stretching across the Seine, its arches gracefully reflected in the river’s waters below. The opposite riverbank is dominated by dense greenery, with faint outlines of spires and Parisian rooftops peeking through in the background, possibly hinting at a view towards the Île de la Cité. The soft tones of the sky and the diffused light create a peaceful ambiance, enhanced by the reflections of the trees and bridge in the water. Mazeilie’s delicate and fluid brushstrokes bring this quiet moment in Paris to life, conveying both a sense of stillness and movement in the scene.
