EDITORS COMMENTS
by Pierre Puvis de Chavannes captures a serene moment in time, transporting us back to the late 19th century. This oil painting on fabric, now housed at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, showcases the artist's mastery of landscape and figure painting. In this idyllic scene, we find ourselves immersed in a lush riverside setting in France. The vibrant colors and meticulous brushwork bring to life a group of people enjoying the warm summer day. A rowboat gently glides along the tranquil river as sunbathers bask under the golden rays. The artist skillfully portrays their relaxed postures and subtle expressions as they seek respite from daily routines. Notably, "Summer, 1891" is a smaller version of a mural originally painted for the Hotel de la Ville de Paris.
