EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print "Le Five O'Clock, 1898" by Ferdinand Sigismund Bac takes us back to the elegant world of French social history. This delightful colour lithograph captures a moment in time when afternoon tea was not just a simple break but an elaborate ritual. The scene depicts a group of well-dressed individuals, both male and female, gathered around a beautifully set table adorned with fine china and delicate pastries. The women are dressed in fashionable gowns, their hats adding an extra touch of sophistication to their ensemble. They exude grace and poise as they engage in animated conversation while sipping tea from dainty cups. The men, equally stylish in tailored suits and polished shoes, appear attentive and engaged. This image transports us to an era where refinement and etiquette were highly valued. It offers a glimpse into the lives of the upper echelons of society who indulged in such luxurious moments during their leisurely afternoons. Bac's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he masterfully captures the ambiance of this refined gathering. From the soft lighting that bathes the room to the intricate patterns on each teacup, every element contributes to creating an atmosphere that is both inviting and enchanting. "Le Five O'Clock" serves as a reminder of how art can transport us through time, allowing us to experience moments long gone but forever preserved within its frame.
