Gustave Caillebotte Steam Train Over Argenteuil Bridge 1885 Poster
A steam train charges across the railroad bridge at Argenteuil trailing a towering plume of smoke. Red blossoms frame this dramatic 1885 Caillebotte riverside scene.
Description
Gustave Caillebotte's 1885 painting captures the raw energy of the steam age on the Seine at Argenteuil. A locomotive crosses the stone arches of the railroad bridge while thick smoke billows into a bright sky and red blossoms glow below. The exhibition-style print is bordered in black with Caillebotte, Paris France and the date printed on the design. A bold statement piece for lovers of trains, bridges and French impressionism.
