The Seine And The Institut De France, Paris – Labelled “e.g. Benito” - Follower - Albert Marque
Description
This refined view of the Seine, labelled “E.G. Benito,” captures the tranquil harmony of Paris bathed in soft afternoon light. The domed silhouette of the Institut de France rises above the calm river, its reflection merging gently with the water’s muted greens and blues. The artist’s controlled brushwork and subtle gradations of tone suggest a painter deeply attuned to atmosphere and proportion, evoking the serenity of the city’s riverbanks. A delicate play of light across architecture and sky conveys a sense of stillness, reminiscent of early 20th-century impressionist studies of urban landscapes. The handwritten inscription on the reverse, “Paris, La Seine et l’Institut,” confirms the subject, adding historical and geographical context to this sophisticated Parisian scene.
