The Banks of the Marne is an oil on canvas painting of the bridge at Créteil on the River Marne by Paul Cézanne, created in 1888. It is held in the Pushkin Museum, in Moscow.^[1]

According to Ambroise Vollard, cited by Henri Perruchot, the work was exhibited at the "exposition Cézanne" which the Galerie Vollard organised in November–December 1895. It formed part of the Pellerin collection before being sold to Vollard in 1912, who re-sold it later the same year to Ivan Morozov. Morozov's collection was seized by the state by a decree of Lenin in spring 1918 and moved to the Museum of Modern Western Art in autumn 1918. It entered its presented home in 1948 when the former Morozov and Shchukin collections were split between the Hermitage Museum and the Pushkin Museum.
