EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Paris in 1883. It showcases a detailed cross-section of a Parisian building, giving us a glimpse into the vibrant life within its walls. The illustration is from Le Magasin Pittoresque, an influential French publication known for its beautiful engravings. As we explore this intricate depiction, we are transported to different floors and rooms of the building. We witness scenes that reflect various aspects of daily life during that era – from families gathering on staircases to students learning in classrooms. The image captures the essence of middle-class existence, with waiters serving patrons in cafes and tailors busy at work. The composition also highlights social interactions and connections between people. We see pupils enjoying meals together, visitors exploring different parts of the building, and even a lift transporting individuals between floors. This snapshot provides valuable insight into both public spaces like schools and private areas such as apartments or flats. Through this historical lens, we gain an understanding of "Paris qui travaille" (Paris at work) – a term often associated with the hardworking bourgeoisie class who contributed significantly to the city's development during that time. Overall, this intriguing print offers not only an architectural study but also a fascinating glimpse into everyday life in 19th-century Paris – capturing moments filled with activity, education, leisurely gatherings, and bustling energy.
