About the Item

**Technical Sheet** **Title:** "Street of the Old Quarter" **Author:** British School, 19th Century **Date:** 1892 **Technique:** Oil on canvas **Dimensions:** 14.17 x 10.63 inches (36 x 27 cm) **Framing:** Unframed **Provenance:** Probable European origin, possibly from the United Kingdom or France, based on the architecture and the depicted urban scene. **Style:** Late Realism with Impressionist influences, focused on the representation of everyday urban scenes and the use of a sober color palette. --- **Description of the Artwork** The painting titled "Street of the Old Quarter" depicts an urban scene from the late 19th century, characterized by buildings with slanted facades, wooden windows with small panes, and gabled roofs. The street is lively with human figures dressed in Victorian-era attire, a horse-drawn carriage, and a gas lamp suggesting an urban setting prior to widespread electrification. The play of light and shadow creates a melancholic atmosphere, accentuated by the grayish sky dominating the background. The pictorial style shows loose yet defined brushstrokes, with a focus on architecture and details of everyday life, highlighting the interaction between characters. **Similar Artists:** This work presents stylistic similarities with urban paintings by artists such as: - **Gustave Caillebotte:** for his interest in urban life and architectural perspective. - **Camille Pissarro:** particularly his street scenes of Paris with small, detailed figures. - **James McNeill Whistler:** for the melancholic atmosphere and muted tones in his urban views. - **Walter Sickert:** who captured the essence of London life with a somber palette and street scenes. The artwork reflects the transition between late Realism and early Impressionism, capturing the essence of an era of social and urban changes in Europe.
