EDITORS COMMENTS
Rue du Chevalier-de-la-Barre, Paris 1899: A Glimpse into the Past as Sacré-Cœur Basilica Takes Shape This evocative oil painting captures the spirit of Paris in the late 19th century, as the iconic Basilique du Sacré-Cœur de Montmartre began to take shape against the backdrop of the bustling Rue du Chevalier-de-la-Barre. The Sacré-Cœur Basilica, a symbol of Christian faith and a testament to French history, is seen here under construction, its grandeur only hinted at through the scaffolding and the partially completed dome. The painting offers a unique perspective on the urban landscape of Paris during this era, with its vibrant colors and rich detail. Pedestrians, both male and female, dressed in the fashion of the time, can be seen strolling along the cobblestone street, their gazes drawn to the monumental construction site. Shops and storefronts line the street, filled with an array of goods, from fresh produce to fine textiles. This scene is a snapshot of Montmartre, a district known for its artistic and bohemian spirit, which was in the midst of rapid transformation during the 19th century. The painting is a treasure from the collections of Musée Carnavalet, the history museum of Paris, and a reminder of the city's rich heritage and the enduring allure of its past.
