"Figures Punting At Dusk" is a notable work by the French-born British artist Theodore Casimir Roussel, who was an influential figure in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Roussel, born in 1847 in Lorient, France, moved to England in 1877, where he became closely associated with the British art scene. He is best known for his intimate and atmospheric landscapes and genre scenes, often capturing the subtle interplay of light and shadow.

Created in 1894, "Figures Punting At Dusk" exemplifies Roussel's mastery in depicting serene and contemplative moments. The painting portrays a tranquil evening scene where figures are engaged in punting—a traditional boating activity—on a calm river. The setting sun casts a soft, diffused light over the water, creating a harmonious blend of colors that evoke a sense of peace and quietude. The figures, though central to the composition, are rendered with a certain degree of anonymity, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the overall mood rather than focusing on individual identities.

Roussel's technique in this work reflects his keen interest in the effects of light and atmosphere, a characteristic he shared with his contemporary and friend, James McNeill Whistler. The influence of Whistler is evident in Roussel's use of a limited color palette and his emphasis on tonal harmony. "Figures Punting At Dusk" also demonstrates Roussel's skill in etching, a medium he explored extensively and through which he gained considerable acclaim.

The painting is a testament to Roussel's ability to capture fleeting moments of beauty and tranquility, making it a significant piece within his oeuvre. It continues to be appreciated for its delicate rendering and the evocative mood it conveys, securing Roussel's place among the notable artists of his time.
