The artwork titled “Moulin de la Galette,” created by Maurice Utrillo, falls under the Post-Impressionism movement and belongs to the cityscape genre.
This painting depicts a cityscape featuring the iconic Moulin de la Galette, a renowned windmill situated in Montmartre, Paris. The windmill stands prominently near the center, showcasing its blades against a backdrop of a partly cloudy sky. Surrounding structures, painted with an array of earth tones and wooden textures, add depth to the scene. Trees and other foliage, rendered with soft brushstrokes, frame the composition, lending it a naturalistic ambiance. The artist’s signature and dedication in the lower right corner of the artwork further personalize this evocative portrayal of urban landscape.
