''Le Pont de l'Europe'' is an oil painting by the French Impressionist artist Gustave Caillebotte, completed in 1876. The painting is one of Caillebotte's most celebrated works and exemplifies his interest in the modernization of Paris during the late 19th century. It depicts the bridge of the same name, which was a massive iron structure that spanned the railway yards at Saint-Lazare station, one of the major hubs of urban renewal in the city under Baron Haussmann.

Measuring 125.1 cm × 181 cm (49.3 in × 71.3 in), the painting is renowned for its bold perspective and the use of diagonal lines that draw the viewer's eye into the composition, a technique influenced by Caillebotte's interest in photography and Japanese prints. The Pont de l'Europe is part of a series of works by Caillebotte that focus on the urban landscape of Paris and the effects of industrialization and modern life on its inhabitants.

The painting captures a moment of everyday life, with figures that represent different social classes coexisting within the same space, suggesting the social changes brought about by the modern city. The central figure, a flâneur or urban observer, is thought to be a self-portrait of Caillebotte himself, reflecting the artist's engagement with the cityscape as both an observer and a participant.

Caillebotte's work on ''Le Pont de l'Europe'' is characterized by his realist approach to the subject matter, combined with an impressionistic sensitivity to light and atmosphere. The painting's composition, with its juxtaposition of the industrial bridge and the human figures, creates a dynamic tension that speaks to the transformation of Paris into a modern metropolis.

Today, ''Le Pont de l'Europe'' is held in the collection of the Musée du Petit Palais in Geneva, Switzerland. It remains a significant piece in the study of Impressionism and is frequently cited in discussions of urban representation in art, as well as the social implications of the modern city.
