The Boulevard at Night, in front of the Theatre des Varietes
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the vibrant energy and allure of 19th-century Parisian nightlife. Painted by Jean Beraud in 1883, this oil on canvas print transports us to a bustling street scene filled with enchantment. The focal point of the painting is the Theatre des Varietes, its grand facade illuminated by a cascade of lights that spill onto the boulevard. The theater stands as a symbol of entertainment and culture, drawing crowds eager for an evening's diversion. Carriages pass by, their wheels clattering against cobblestones as elegantly dressed men and women make their way towards cafes lining the street. In this nocturnal setting, Beraud skillfully captures both movement and stillness. The play of light creates dramatic contrasts between shadows and highlights, casting an air of mystery over the scene. A gentleman wearing a top hat strolls leisurely along the boulevard while couples engage in animated conversations outside cafes. This artwork not only showcases Beraud's mastery in capturing urban life but also serves as a window into Parisian society during this era. It invites viewers to imagine themselves immersed in this lively atmosphere where art meets everyday life. Displayed at Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet in France, "The Boulevard at Night" continues to captivate audiences with its timeless charm and evocative portrayal of one unforgettable evening on Les Varietes Street.
