Year: Late 19th Century Size: 43 x 53 in Medium: Oil Description: A large, very striking late 19th-century oil painting of a bridge over the fabled Seine in Paris. You see all the working-class bustle and activity going on: a barge passing beneath the bridge, carrying its load and puffing smoke; some boatmen inspecting a load of something or another along the quaie; a gendarme pausing to say hello to one of them; and so on. You can see from the photo of the back that the painting was attributed by someone to a 19th-century painter named Henry John Terry. 43" x 53" with frame, 36" x 45.5" unframed.
