EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, titled "Gentlemen and Lady on the Pont des Arts, 1884," showcases an elegant scene of Parisian society during the late 19th century. The image, taken from Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris, published by William Heinemann in London in 1898, is an illustration by Francois Courboin, based on a real event that took place on the terrace of the Luxembourg Palace. The Pont des Arts, a beautiful pedestrian bridge crossing the Seine River, serves as the picturesque backdrop for this tranquil moment. A group of well-dressed gentlemen, all wearing top hats and finely tailored suits, are gathered around a fountain, engrossed in conversation. Among them, a graceful lady in a lilac dress adorned with ribbons and flowers stands, her parasol shielding her from the sun. Her dress features a bustle, black lace collar, and cuffs, emblematic of the fashionable attire of the time. The setting is the Palais du Luxembourg, a historic palace in the 6th arrondissement of Paris, which was home to the Institut de France, a prestigious academic institution. The Institut de France, established during the French Revolution in the Third Republic, was a hub for intellectual and artistic pursuits, making this scene a fitting representation of the era's French culture and societal aesthetics. This image offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the elegance and refinement of Parisian society during the late 19th century. The gentlemen's serious expressions and the lady's serene demeanor convey a sense of sophistication and poise, making this a truly enchanting piece of history.
