Passengers by the Corbeil Steamboat, Paris, 1846
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating handcoloured lithograph depicting a scene of fashionable women and men enjoying a leisurely day out on the River Seine. The image, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin, was published in Octave Uzanne's "Fashion in Paris" in 1898. The Corbeil bateau a vapeur, a popular steamboat that transported travelers out of Paris, is docked at the terrace of the Tortoni café, located on the Boulevard des Italiens. The women in the foreground are dressed in the height of 19th-century fashion, with one wearing a green crinoline dress adorned with bows, a cashmere shawl, and a bonnet. Her elegant attire is a testament to the bourbon restoration period under King Louis Philippe, a time when French society placed great importance on aesthetics and culture. In the background, dandies and intellectuals engage in animated conversation, while ladies of the demi-monde linger at the glacier, enjoying icy treats. The café's ornate interior can be glimpsed through the open doors, with its ornate decor and gilded furnishings adding to the overall sense of opulence and refinement. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashionable world of Parisian society during the July Monarchy, a time of prosperity and cultural flourishing. The Corbeil steamboat served as a symbol of modernity and progress, connecting Parisians to the city's rich cultural offerings and providing a backdrop for the display of the latest fashion trends. The handcoloured lithograph captures the essence of this period in French history, offering a window into the past and a reminder of the enduring allure of Parisian culture.
