This collection reflects the fascination with the newly constructed tower, which was completed for the 1889 Exposition Universelle. Rivière, a key figure in the Chat Noir cabaret circle, drew inspiration from the woodblock prints of Hokusai and Hiroshige. He adopted the Japanese approach to composition, which often features flattened perspectives, bold outlines, and a restricted colour palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this specific view from the Grenelle Bridge, the Eiffel Tower appears as a distant, structural element behind the stone arches of the bridge. The foreground captures a quiet moment along the banks of the Seine, where a figure walks a dog. The composition relies on clean lines and flat areas of colour, characteristic of the lithographic process Rivière utilised. By placing the industrial icon of the tower within the everyday life of Paris, he documents the changing urban environment of the late nineteenth century. The work avoids excessive detail, focusing instead on the interplay between the geometric form of the tower and the organic shapes of the riverbank and clouds. This series remains a significant example of how European artists integrated Eastern aesthetic principles into their depictions of modern life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/poisson-et-algues-papier-peint-pigeon-et-pavots-bordure-de-vitrail-maurice-pillard-verneuil\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePoisson et Algues, Papier Peint \/ Pigeon et Pavots, Bordure de Vitrail - Maurice Pillard Verneuil — Maurice Pillard Verneuil\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/jacob-and-rachel-franz-hanfstaengl\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eJacob and Rachel - Franz Hanfstaengl — Franz Hanfstaengl\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henri Rivière","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58730797302095,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58730805231951,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58730805264719,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58730805297487,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58730805330255,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58730805363023,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58730805395791,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58730805428559,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58730805461327,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58730805494095,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58730805526863,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58730805559631,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Thirty-Six-Views-of-the-Eiffel-Tower_-From-the-Grenelle-Bridge_Poster_CompositorV1_1789010912874.jpg?v=1789011821","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/thirty-six-views-of-the-eiffel-tower-from-the-grenelle-bridge-henri-riviere","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
