EDITORS COMMENTS
by Charles Angrand is a captivating painting that beautifully captures the essence of summer in France. The artist's mastery of impressionism and pointillism techniques brings to life the vibrant colors and light that illuminate this cityscape. In this stunning artwork, we are transported back to a time when steam trains were the epitome of modern transportation. The railway station platform bustles with activity as passengers eagerly await their departure or arrival. A magnificent steam locomotive stands proudly on the tracks, ready to whisk travelers away on their journeys. Angrand's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, particularly in his depiction of trees lining the railway exit. Their lush green foliage adds depth and texture to the scene, creating a harmonious balance between man-made structures and nature. As we gaze upon this fine art piece, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. It serves as a reminder of how rail transport played a crucial role in shaping history and connecting people across vast distances. Displayed at the National Gallery in London, "The Western Railway at its Exit from Paris" is not just a decorative painting; it is an exquisite representation of French post-impressionist art. Its neoimpressionistic style showcases Angrand's skillful use of local colors and divisionism techniques. This print invites us to appreciate both the technical brilliance behind its creation and the poetic beauty it conveys—a true testament to Charles Angrand's
