EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative oil painting by Paul Schaan captures the picturesque Quay of the Hotel-de-Ville as seen from Ile de la Cite in Paris during the autumn of 1896. The fourth arrondissement backdrop is bathed in the warm hues of the season, with trees displaying vibrant red, orange, and yellow leaves. In the foreground, a lone man sits on a bench, gazing out at the tranquil waterfront scene. The Hotel-de-Ville, Paris's historic town hall, is prominently featured in the background, its ornate facade reflecting in the calm waters. The Quai de l'Hôtel-de-Ville, also known as Quai aux Fleurs, is lined with railings and dotted with trees, adding to the serene atmosphere. The painting exudes a sense of heritage and history, with the Church of Saint-Gervais-et-Saint-Protais visible in the background. The institution, which dates back to the 6th century, stands as a testament to Paris' rich Christian heritage. The painting, created using oil on canvas, is a beautiful example of 19th-century art. It is currently housed in the Musée Carnavalet, Paris' history museum, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors. The scene invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of life - the beauty of nature, the tranquility of a quiet waterfront, and the passing of the seasons. Schaan's masterful use of color and composition invites us to linger and lose ourselves in the painting's details, making it a true treasure of Parisian art.
