EDITORS COMMENTS
Retour des Champs-Elysees, c1870-1900 (1924) captures the essence of a wintry night in 19th century Paris. In this black and white etching by Felix Hilaire Buhot, we are transported to the bustling Avenue des Champs-Elysees, one of the most iconic streets in France. The scene is set during a rainy season, as wet cobblestones reflect the dim streetlights. A horse-drawn carriage makes its way through the city, with pedestrians hurrying across the road to seek shelter from the inclement weather. The artist's attention to detail brings out every nuance of this urban landscape - from the glistening raindrops on umbrellas to the misty atmosphere that envelops everything. Buhot's masterful use of monochrome adds an air of nostalgia and timelessness to this print. It evokes a sense of history and transports us back in time to experience a moment frozen forever within these etched lines. This artwork is part of 'A History of French Etching from the 16th Century to Present Day, ' published in 1924 by F L Leipnik. It serves as a testament not only to Buhot's talent but also his contribution to French art history. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear echoes of laughter and conversation drifting along with the winter breeze on those famous Champs-Elysees.
