La Madeleine, Paris
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating bodycolour print by Jacques Lieven (b. 1850), which captures the essence of the bustling French capital in the late nineteenth century. The artwork measures 17.8x30.5 cm and belongs to a private collection. This atmospheric piece depicts a rainy day in Paris, with horse-drawn carriages navigating the wet streets and a large group of people seeking shelter under umbrellas. The artist's use of bodycolour brings out the vibrant hues of the cityscape, despite adverse weather conditions. Lieven, believed to be a pseudonym for Eugene Galien-Laloue, skillfully portrays both men and women engaged in various leisure activities amidst this urban scene. The fine details showcase not only their postures but also their interactions within this social gathering. The composition beautifully captures La Madeleine, an iconic building exterior that stands tall against the gloomy backdrop. Illuminated by electricity, its grandeur adds depth to this snapshot of city life during that era. With its receding view and diminishing perspective, "La Madeleine, Paris" invites viewers into an immersive experience where they can almost feel themselves standing on that rain-soaked sidewalk alongside these figures from history. This exquisite print truly exemplifies European art from the nineteenth century while offering us a glimpse into daily life during that time period in one of France's most beloved cities.
