1882 Bench Benches Crane Judy Parks Punch Puppet Puppets Tuileries Watch Watching
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment of pure joy and wonder as children gather around to watch a Theatre Amusant puppet show in the heart of Paris, France. The scene unfolds in the picturesque Tuileries Gardens, a historical and scenic public space established in the 16th century. The children, dressed in Victorian attire, sit on a rustic wooden bench, their eyes fixed on the colorful and intricate puppets being manipulated by an unseen artist. The puppet show, presented by the renowned Theatre Amusant company, is a cherished leisure activity that has entertained generations of Parisians and tourists since its inception in the late 1800s. The children's rapt attention is evident as they lean in, some even reaching out to touch the crane puppet as it soars overhead. The serene garden setting, with its lush greenery and ornate fountains, adds to the magical atmosphere. This photograph, taken in the 1880s, offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural traditions of Paris during this period. The children's innocent delight and the timeless art of puppetry transport us back in time, making this image a precious treasure for history and art enthusiasts alike. The photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the enduring allure of puppetry and the simple pleasures of a day spent in the park.
