Music Softens Morals - A Glimpse into the Melodious Streets of 20th Century Paris
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print, titled "Music softens morals". French artist Chocarne-Moreau transports us to the bustling streets of early 1900s Paris. The scene unfolds with a delightful sense of humor and whimsy, capturing the essence of childhood innocence and the power of music. At its center, a young street musician stands proudly, his tiny hands skillfully playing an enchanting tune on his musical instrument. His infectious laughter fills the air as he captivates passersby with his melodic charm. Beside him perches an unexpected companion – a mischievous monkey who adds an element of surprise and playfulness to this lively tableau. Chocarne-Moreau's masterful brushstrokes bring every detail to life, from the child's vibrant clothing to the intricate design of his prickly organ.

As we admire this timeless artwork by Leonard de Selva, let us be reminded of music's transformative power – how it can
