EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming handcoloured lithograph captures a mother and her young child enjoying a leisurely moment in the picturesque Champs-Elysees of Paris in 1832. The fashionable couple, depicted in the corner of the Boulevard des Italiens, exude elegance and sophistication. The woman, dressed in a high-necked lace collar, a full-skirted dress with wide, leg-of-mutton sleeves, and a bonnet adorned with a muff, embodies the fashion trends of the Bourbon Restoration period. Her daughter, dressed in a pelerine and pantalettes or bloomers, plays with a hoop, adding a touch of innocence and joy to the scene. In the background, a man in a redingote and top hat observes the scene from a nearby café. A military man in a red cap stands at attention, adding a sense of order and discipline to the otherwise carefree atmosphere. The scenic setting, with its lush greenery and grand architecture, further emphasizes the beauty and charm of French society during this period. This illustration, created by Francois Courboin and published in Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris in 1898, provides a glimpse into the aesthetics and cultural norms of French society during the July Monarchy. The attention to detail in the clothing and accessories, as well as the captivating composition, make this a truly enchanting and historically significant image.
