Women Waiting for Stage Coaches in Paris, 1839: A Scene of Fashionable Anticipation This handcoloured lithograph captures a moment in time from the 19th century, depicting women eagerly waiting for stage coaches in the courtyard of the Messageries Nationales diligences in Paris. The year is 1839, and the women, dressed in the height of fashion, are adorned with lace bonnets, shawls, and wide-sleeved dresses. The scene is reminiscent of Francois Courboin's illustration, as featured in Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris, published by William Heinemann in London in 1898. In the foreground, a woman in a pink dress and a bonnet with a muff clutched to her chest gazes intently towards the arrival of the stage coach. Nearby, another woman, dressed in an ermine-trimmed cape, leans against a wall, her hand resting on a muff. A third woman, wearing a top hat and a coat, adjusts her monocle as she chats with a man, who is seen holding a whip and a driving gig. The background of the image reveals a bustling scene of horse-drawn carriages and people milling about. The Bois de Boulogne park and gardens can be seen in the distance, a popular destination for Parisians during the Bourbon Restoration and the July Monarchy. This image offers a glimpse into the fashionable society of Paris during the 1830s and 1840s, a time of cultural and aesthetic significance under the rule of King Louis Philippe. The women's elegant attire and the men's dapper top hats and coats reflect the refined sensibilities of the era, making this a captivating and intriguing snapshot of 19th-century French culture.
