Product Description

View from the Quai d'Orsay 1854 Johan Barthold Jongkind Dutch. Historical artwork in public domain. This view from the left bank of the Seine River encompasses the Tuileries Gardens and the Louvre, at left, and the Palais d'Orsay and Hôtel de Salm (Palais de la Légion d'Honneur), at right. Yet the prominence of the industrial barges and crane underscore the appeal of Paris’s working waterfront to Jongkind’s aesthetic sensibility. Jongkind first moved from Holland to France in 1846, sketching along the banks of the Seine from 1849 onward. In his studio, he transformed the sketches into oil paintings such as this one, which he showed in the 1855 Exposition Universelle in Paris. Title: View from the Quai d'Orsay Artist: Johan Barthold Jongkind (Dutch, Latrop 1819–1891 La-Côte-Saint-André) Date: 1854 Medium: Oil on canvas, mounted on wood Inscription: Signed and dated (lower right): Jongkind 54 Hefting (1975) reproduces four works related to this painting: a pencil sketch of the right side of the composition (no. 67; Musée du Louvre, Paris), a watercolor study of the crane (no. 111; Musée du Louvre, Paris), an oil painting dated 1852 (no. 106; Musée des Beaux-Arts Salies, Bagnères-de-Bigorre), and an undated oil (no. 117; now Fondation Custodia, Paris).
