Painting Description
"Vue du Pont Neuf avec la Samaritaine, et l'Île de la Cité" is a notable 18th-century painting by French artist Nicolas Jean-Baptiste Raguenet, who specialized in cityscapes and vedute of Paris. This artwork captures a vibrant scene of Parisian life centered around the Pont Neuf, the oldest standing bridge across the river Seine in Paris. The painting is distinguished by its detailed depiction of the bustling city life during the Enlightenment period, offering a glimpse into the urban landscape and social dynamics of the time.
The composition of the painting showcases the Pont Neuf, which was, and remains, a significant Parisian landmark, along with the historical La Samaritaine pump house, which supplied water to parts of the city. The Île de la Cité, one of two natural islands in the Seine river and the center of Paris where the medieval city was refounded, is also prominently featured. Raguenet's work is characterized by its meticulous attention to architectural details and its ability to convey the atmosphere of the city through the use of light and shadow, as well as the inclusion of figures from various strata of society.
"Vue du Pont Neuf avec la Samaritaine, et l'Île de la Cité" is not only an artistic representation but also an important historical document, as it preserves the image of Paris before modernization projects, such as those initiated by Baron Haussmann in the late 19th century, transformed the city's landscape. The painting is a valuable resource for historians and art enthusiasts alike, offering insight into the urban environment of Paris before these significant changes. It is a testament to Raguenet's skill as a painter of vedute, a genre that aims to capture the essence of a city through its urban scenery.
As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting's current location, ownership status, and exhibition history are not specified. Art historians and critics have often celebrated Raguenet's works for their contribution to the visual documentation of Parisian life in the pre-Haussmann era, and "Vue du Pont Neuf avec la Samaritaine, et l'Île de la Cité" stands as a prime example of his artistic legacy.
