"Les Champs Élysées (ou La Nourrice)" is a notable painting by the French artist Henri Edmond Cross, a prominent figure in the Neo-Impressionist movement. Created in 1890, this work exemplifies Cross's transition from the traditional Impressionist style to the more structured and scientifically informed approach of Neo-Impressionism, which was characterized by the use of pointillism or divisionism. This technique involves the application of small, distinct dots of color that are intended to blend in the viewer's eye, creating a luminous and vibrant effect.

The painting captures a serene scene in the famous Parisian avenue, the Champs-Élysées, which is often referred to as "La Nourrice" (The Nurse) due to the presence of a nursemaid in the composition. The setting is bathed in natural light, with meticulously placed dots of color that convey the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees. Cross's use of color is both harmonious and dynamic, employing a palette that includes rich greens, blues, and warm earth tones to evoke the tranquil yet lively atmosphere of the urban park.

Henri Edmond Cross, born Henri-Edmond-Joseph Delacroix, was deeply influenced by the scientific color theories of Michel Eugène Chevreul and Ogden Rood, which informed his approach to painting. His work, including "Les Champs Élysées (ou La Nourrice)," reflects a meticulous attention to the interplay of light and color, aiming to achieve a greater luminosity and emotional resonance.

This painting is a testament to Cross's skill in capturing the ephemeral beauty of everyday scenes through the innovative techniques of Neo-Impressionism. It remains an important piece within his oeuvre, illustrating his contribution to the evolution of modern art at the turn of the 20th century.
