In a rainy evening atmosphere, a stretch of Parisian pavement with, from left to right, a Morris column, a black lit street lamp in the foreground and the illuminated entrance to a metro station in the background. Passers-by are walking under umbrellas. The golden foliage of a grove of trees can be seen behind the lamp post.

The view of Paris is from the Boucicaut square in front of the Bon Marché in the Sèvres-Babylone metro station in the 6th arrondissement.

All in luminous vibrations with a dominant palette of yellows and orange pinks, the artist’s vision puts us in an atmosphere of luminous and enveloping mist that only the yellow halos of the two lights manage to pierce.

The frame of the lamppost is the only stable element, the other elements (the Morris column, the asphalt of the ground, the passers-by) seem to be mirages detectable only by the luminous reflections that they send.
