The Street
About this artwork
A woodcut-style lithograph portraying a dense, diverse crowd walking down a city street in Paris. The print features bold, flat areas of color and strong black outlines characteristic of Vallotton’s graphic work.
Did you know?
Félix Vallotton was a key figure in the Nabis, a group of post-impressionist artists who sought to break away from traditional representation in favor of more decorative, flat compositions. This work captures the bustling energy of Parisian life with a detached, almost satirical lens, reflecting the artist's keen observation of the social stratification present in the public sphere at the time.
