VISUAL DESCRIPTION
In this image from "La Vie Parisienne," we see another example of early twentieth-century French illustration capturing societal scenes with humor and elegance. Two women are caught mid-stride against gusts of wind that playfully lift their skirts revealing frilly petticoats beneath their coats—a cheeky nod to indiscretions ("INDISCRETIONS MONDAINES"). Their faces are obscured by large hats topped with plumes as they clutch onto umbrellas turned inside out by the forceful breeze—an amusing portrayal of everyday mishaps during this period.
