In the Bois de Boulogne near Paris, Isaac Israels, ca. 1906.
sraels knew Paris well and lived there for a long time. This family picnic in the Bois de Boulogne, probably on a sunny or public holiday, is a typical
subject for Israels. He did not like gloom and painted in Paris mainly the urban entertainment, especially that of women: parks, fashion houses, restaurants and cafés.
