EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, entitled "A Fop Driving in the Bois de Boulogne, 1840," offers a glimpse into the high life and fashionable society of Paris during the Bourbon Restoration period. The image, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris, published in 1898 by William Heinemann in London, depicts a dandy in top hat and coat, adorned with a monocle and carrying a whip, driving a one-horse gig through the picturesque Bois de Boulogne. The elegant woman in the scene, dressed in a pink gown with long, voluminous sleeves and a ermine-trimmed cape, wears a bonnet and an ermine muff. She appears to be engaged in a playful exchange with the cavalier, perhaps flirting from the back of her companion's horse. The setting is the La Jardinière horseback riding course, a popular destination for Parisians seeking leisure and entertainment. The fashionable attire of the couple reflects the opulence and refinement of the era, with the man's cravat, waistcoat, and coat tails, and the woman's intricately designed dress and sleeves, all contributing to the aesthetic appeal of the image. The Bois de Boulogne, a large public park in the western part of Paris, was a favoured destination for the French aristocracy and the bourgeoisie during the July Monarchy, providing an idyllic setting for socializing, horseback riding, and other recreational activities. This image, with its intricate details and vibrant colours, offers a window into the rich cultural heritage of 19th-century French society, showcasing the fashion, esthetics, and social customs of the time.
