Maurice Prendergast

Along the Seine
1892

Impressionist-style painting depicting a solitary figure in period attire walking along a path with autumn leaves scattered on the ground. The person is wearing a dark cape over a long dress with a light-colored hem and holds what appears to be a parasol or umbrella. The background features a tree with yellow leaves and a hint of a blue bridge in the distance, suggesting an urban park setting. The artist's signature is visible at the bottom.
