He moved to Paris in 1923, where he spent the remainder of his life. This work captures the energy of the French capital at night. The composition focuses on a busy street scene filled with pedestrians and early motor cars. Glowing lights from cafes illuminate the background.\n\nKorovin uses a loose, painterly technique. The brushwork is rapid and expressive, suggesting movement rather than precise detail. The wet pavement reflects the artificial light from street lamps and shop windows, creating a sense of atmosphere. Figures are rendered with minimal strokes, appearing as silhouettes or splashes of colour against the dark background. The artist employs a thick application of paint to build texture across the surface.\n\nThe palette is dominated by ochre and deep greens, accented by reds. These tones contrast with the dark shadows of the evening. Korovin avoids sharp outlines, preferring to build the scene through the juxtaposition of light and shadow. This approach captures the fleeting nature of urban life. The painting is characteristic of his later period, when he frequently returned to the theme of Parisian boulevards. He often painted these scenes from memory or from his studio window, focusing on the sensory experience of the city.\n\nThis print reproduces the original oil painting with accuracy. It shows the heavy impasto and the varied textures of Korovin's application. The work is a significant example of how Russian artists adapted the Impressionist style to urban subjects in the early twentieth century. The composition leads the eye through the street, following the path of the red car and the pedestrians. It remains a clear record of the artist's fascination with the modern city and its nocturnal character.\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\/impression-sunrise-claude-monet-1\" 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;\"\u003eImpression, Sunrise - Claude Monet — Claude Monet\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/miss-elsie-palmer-john-singer-sargent\" 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;\"\u003eMiss Elsie Palmer - John Singer Sargent — John Singer Sargent\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Konstantin Korovin","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57843800768847,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57843805028687,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57843805061455,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57843805094223,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57843805126991,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/A-Boulevard-in-Paris_Poster_CompositorV1_1780441206836.jpg?v=1780444352","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/a-boulevard-in-paris-konstantin-korovin","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
