The Quai Saint-Michel and Notre-Dame is a 1901 oil painting on canvas by the French artist Maximilien Luce. Luce was part of the Neo-Impressionist movement between 1887 and 1897 and used the technique of employing separate dabs of colour for the painting, one of ten he undertook of Notre-Dame de Paris. The Musée d'Orsay in Paris, which holds the image, note that it was completed as Luce was moving from his Neo-Impressionist period to his later Pointillist period.Painting: Maximilien Luce
