Done en plain air on a windy and cold December Sunday in Paris. This bridge was completed in 1680, replacing a wooden bridge which was periodically washed away. The bridge links rue du Bac on the left bank, to the Tuileries gardens on the right bank. Rue du Bac is named afte the "bac", a ferry barge which preceded the wooden bridge.
