Daubigny explores the coexistence of work and leisure as well as past and present in this view of Mantes, located on the Seine near Paris. While a fashionably dressed lady idly contemplates the placid waters of the river\u2014perhaps looking for an ideal spot to cast her fishing line\u2014the boat steaming toward the wide-arched bridge indicates the river\u2019s function as a working waterway. Daubigny acknowledges both France\u2019s historical past and its industrial future\u2014a forecast of Impressionist concerns\u2014 by juxtaposing the Gothic towers and pitched roof of the town\u2019s church with an active smokestack.Object metadata can change over time, please check the Brooklyn Museum object record for the latest information.
