Henri Zuber (1844-1909). Busy Street, Paris?

A busy street probably in Paris and perhaps on a beautiful spring day. The foreground occupied by the tree and the shadows gives a feeling of space and depth to the composition, the urban landscape is skillfully suggested in order to highlight the more detailed human activity. Henri Zuber gives us in this watercolor an ambiance, an atmosphere, a suspended moment of a Paris of 1883 but which remains timeless.
Signed and dedicated to Monsieur Fournier 1883. Watercolor 36x25 cm - mat 55x44.5 cm.
Good condition (a tiny tear barely visible on an edge, see last photo)

And more specifically on his Parisian watercolors:
...Sometimes, it is the silhouette of a man in a dark frock coat, wearing a top hat, or the cornets of nuns walking in a garden that animate the subject. Only the foregrounds are meticulously painted, whether the statues in the Luxembourg Gardens, the Louvre Palace, the quays, a bridge, or a fountain, while the depth of the distances, most often sketched, invites the eye to go beyond them towards the sky, the trees and the city. This is not at any time genre painting; Henri ZUBER's watercolors remain landscapes, urban landscapes, Parisian, certainly where the evocation of shadow and light, the color of the sky, the very quality of the light at a given moment count as much, if not more, than the particular place of the subject. This is why, even today, his works have remained so lively, contemporary at times, an expression of a city, Paris.
