EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting handcoloured lithograph captures the essence of Parisian elegance and the allure of the 1889 Exposition Universelle (World's Fair) through the eyes of a fashionable woman in the Exhibition Gardens. The image, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's "Fashion in Paris," published by William Heinemann in London in 1898, offers a glimpse into the vibrant and sophisticated world of late 19th-century French society. The woman, dressed in a fitted jacket and slim skirt, gracefully strolls through the gardens with a hat shielding her from the morning sun and a parasol protecting her from the occasional ray. Her elegant attire is a testament to the refined aesthetics of the era, while her poised demeanor and the gentle curve of her parasol suggest an air of leisure and sophistication. In the background, the iconic Eiffel Tower stands tall and proud, its iron structure reaching for the sky. The tower, a symbol of the Republic of France's industrial prowess and modernity, had only recently been completed and was a major attraction at the Exposition Universelle. The woman's serene presence in the gardens, with the tower looming in the background, underscores the harmonious blend of nature and innovation that defined the Exposition. The scene is further enlivened by the presence of dogs, a horse, and the Arc de Triomphe in the distance. The woman's tranquil promenade through the gardens, with the bustling Avenue Foch and the Bois de Boulogne beyond, speaks to the rich tapestry of French culture and the enduring allure of Parisian life during this period.
