"Jean-jacques Rousseau - View Of Tower Bridge In London"
Vice-president of the Colonial Society of French Artists, Jean-Jacques Rousseau is best known for his landscapes of the Normandy coast and his views brought back from Indochina.This very large-format pastel on canvas, representing the animated Thames in the early morning, perfectly illustrates the poetry of industrial and teeming London. This work marked by a striking realism is a real window on the 19th century and the end of the Victorian era. Signed and dated 1899 lower right.
