EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph captures the essence of French high society in the early 19th century, as a fashionable woman takes a leisurely stroll through the beautiful Gardens of the Tuileries. Dressed in the latest mode, she wears a bonnet adorned with ribbons and a lace collar, paired with a elegant satin walking dress. In the background, children play with hoops and yo-yos, accompanied by their nannies, adding a charming touch to the scene. The Gardens of the Tuileries, located near the rue de Rivoli in Paris, were a popular destination for the city's elite during the Bourbon Restoration. The year is 1819, and the scene depicts the famous "Grande Journee de Longchamps," a race day at the Longchamp racecourse. The fashionable gentlemen, seen in the top hats, tails, and canes, would have been in attendance at the races, making this a prime opportunity for the fashionable set to show off their latest attire. The crowds and carriages in the distance add to the lively atmosphere, while the grandeur of the King Louis XVIII's reign is reflected in the elegant architecture and manicured gardens. This beautiful illustration, created by Francois Courboin and published in Octave Uzanne's "Fashion in Paris," offers a glimpse into the culture and aesthetics of French society during this period. The intricate handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning representation of the 19th century.
