EDITORS COMMENTS
This color print captures a serene moment on the River Seine in 19th century Paris. Taken by a talented French photographer, this image showcases a sailing boat gracefully gliding along the tranquil waters of the iconic river. The vibrant hues bring to life the beauty of leisurely sailing and evoke a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. The photograph was featured in an article on sailing in Le Figaro Illustre, a popular publication at that time. It offers us a glimpse into the recreational activities enjoyed by Parisians during those summer months of August in 1894. The dinghy sails peacefully against the backdrop of stunning architecture and picturesque scenery, showcasing both the elegance of yachting and the charm of French culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back to an age where water sports were not only reserved for professionals but also embraced as leisurely pursuits by enthusiasts. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling city life, moments of tranquility can be found on rivers like the Seine. With its historical significance and artistic appeal, this print is more than just a visual delight; it is also an homage to France's rich maritime heritage and its enduring love affair with water-based activities.
