EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris, published in 1898, offers a glimpse into the elegant and fashionable world of Parisian society during the mid-19th century. The image, titled "avenue du Bois de Boulogne, Paris, 1856," depicts a woman in a stylish bonnet, jacket, and wide crinoline, intently watching horse riders and carriages on the riding track. The Avenue du Bois de Boulogne, located in the western part of Paris, was a popular destination for the city's elite. The area was known for its beautiful landscapes, grand mansions, and horse racing track, which attracted fashionable crowds seeking leisure and entertainment. The woman in the image appears to be observing the scene below through a pair of binoculars, adding an air of excitement and anticipation to her appearance. Her attire, with its voluminous crinoline and fashionable jacket, reflects the latest trends of the time. The background of the image reveals a bustling scene of horse-drawn carriages, riders, and onlookers, all gathered to enjoy the day at the riding track. The presence of a dog at the woman's side adds a touch of whimsy and domesticity to the scene. Interestingly, the year 1856 is significant as it was the year that the comet Halley made its closest approach to Earth, causing widespread panic and fear. However, this image does not reflect any signs of this astronomical event, instead focusing on the aesthetics and culture of French society during the Napoleonic III Empire.
