Le Pont-Neuf is an 1872 oil-on-canvas painting by the French artist Pierre-Auguste Renoir.

It is held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.[1] The Pont Neuf is the oldest standing bridge across the river Seine in Paris, France.

In 1867, French painters Claude Monet and Renoir first depicted the bridge in their series of riverbank paintings, returning to the subject again in 1872.

[3] Both Renoir and Monet painted separate works using the same perspective to depict the Right Bank side of the bridge from the second-floor window of a cafe.

[4] Renoir started his work in the spring[2] and sold it at auction to French art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel on March 24, 1875, for only 300 francs.
