Armistice Day, Place de la Mairie
1927

A vibrant painting depicting a bustling square with people in period attire. The scene is framed by European-style buildings adorned with French and American flags. In the center, a small park with young trees and a fountain is surrounded by pedestrians. The sky is painted with soft, pastel hues, suggesting a warm, sunny day.
