This collection draws inspiration from the ukiyo-e tradition, specifically the works of Hokusai. Rivière adopts the Japanese approach to composition, using flat planes of colour and simplified forms to document the changing appearance of the Eiffel Tower against the Parisian skyline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this specific print, From the Quai de Grenelle, the artist captures a scene of industrial labour along the Seine. A large crane dominates the mid-ground, while workers and horse-drawn carts manage piles of sand in the foreground. The Eiffel Tower appears in the distance, rendered with minimal detail, acting as a constant presence in the urban environment. The muted palette and clean lines reflect the influence of woodblock printing techniques, adapted here for the medium of lithography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRivière was a key figure in the Chat Noir cabaret circle, where his interest in shadow puppetry and graphic design informed his visual language. His work provides a record of Paris during a period of rapid modernisation. By placing the tower within the context of everyday work, he avoids the monumental treatment often afforded to the structure by his contemporaries. The print demonstrates a balance between the geometric precision of the tower and the organic, textured forms of the riverbank. It is a study of light, atmosphere, and the intersection of traditional industry with new engineering.\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=\"\/sv\/products\/adolphe-ou-le-jeune-homme-triste-henri-de-toulouse-lautrec\" 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;\"\u003eAdolphe ou Le Jeune Homme Triste - Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec — Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/sv\/products\/portrait-of-the-artist-maxime-maufra\" 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;\"\u003ePortrait of the Artist - Maxime Maufra — Maxime Maufra\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":58730821779791,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58730828464463,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58730828497231,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58730828529999,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58730828562767,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58730828595535,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58730828628303,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58730828661071,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58730828693839,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58730828726607,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58730828759375,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58730828792143,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Thirty-Six-Views-of-the-Eiffel-Tower_-From-the-Quai-de-Grenelle_Poster_CompositorV1_1789012168154.jpg?v=1789012857","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/sv\/products\/thirty-six-views-of-the-eiffel-tower-from-the-quai-de-grenelle-henri-riviere","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
