Sunset on Vaugirard, a windmill on the right

Paul Huet spent the summer 1839 in Sceaux, very close to Vaugirard. Huet was at that time working closely with Delacroix, whose landscape are very similar to Huet's. Landscape watercolours by Huet are illustrated by Mortier-Valat & Cie, 1803-1869 aquarelles de Paul Huet, Galerie Verneuil Saints Pères, 1982, nos. 40, 43, 57, 60, 64, 75, 80, 96; and at Galerie Heim, Paintings by Paul Huet (1803-1869) and some Contemporary French Sculpture, London, 1969, nos. 31, 40, 44, 60, 72, 75, 82, 83, 98.
