Landscape on a River

Charles-François Daubigny

1863 · Oil on wood · European Paintings

This study depicts Valmondois, a village on the Oise River not far from Daubigny's home in Auvers. The key to the location is the sand pit and the barges in the middle distance; they appear in several of the Valmondois studies, of which the present picture is the earliest example.
