EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph captures a moment of elegance and sophistication in 19th century Paris. Titled "Subscribers leaving the opera, 1891" the image depicts a gentleman in a top hat and white-tie assisting a woman with her fur-lined cape on the grand staircase of the Opera de Paris. The scene exudes opulence and refinement, showcasing the fashion and social customs of French society during this time period. The gentleman's monocle adds an air of aristocracy, while his attentiveness to the woman demonstrates chivalry and etiquette. The artist, R. V. , beautifully brings this illustration by Francois Courboin to life with vibrant colours that enhance every detail. The lithograph is part of Octave Uzanne's book "Fashion in Paris" published in London in 1898. As we gaze at this print, we are transported back to an era when attending the opera was not only about enjoying music but also about being seen as part of high society. It serves as a window into French culture, aesthetics, and fashion trends during the Third Republic. This exquisite piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. It reminds us of how art can capture moments frozen in time for generations to come.
