"Parisian River Side Stroll" - Signed Cle Hyrvoix & Dated 1892. Oil on Wood

An engaging late 19th-century oil painting on thick wood panel, signed Clé Hyrvoix and dated 1892, sourced in Paris, France. The composition captures a lively riverside scene with finely dressed figures in period attire — some strolling, others pausing in conversation — set against the atmospheric backdrop of the city.

Hyrvoix’s attention to detail brings the moment to life: from the seated man resting beside a crate with his loyal dog, to the richly colored garments, top hats, and flowing coats of the passersby. A small dog trots among them, adding charm and movement to the vignette. The muted Parisian sky and soft light lend an impression of both elegance and everyday realism.

Painted on a substantial wood panel, the piece has a timeless quality, blending narrative charm with technical skill. A rare find for collectors of 19th-century French art and those who appreciate scenes of historic urban life.
