EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling atmosphere of Pont Neuf bridge in Paris during the reign of Louis XIV. In the 17th century, this iconic landmark was not only a crossing point but also a hub of activity and entertainment. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with walkers, artists, badauds (onlookers), merchants, charlatans (quacks), and even small theatres. The composition beautifully portrays the diverse characters that populated the bridge at that time. Artists can be seen showcasing their talents to captivated spectators while sellers peddle their wares to passersby. Charlatans add an element of intrigue as they attempt to attract attention with their dubious claims. The view offers a glimpse into the daily life and social dynamics during King Louis XIV's era, known as "the Great King". It is evident that Pont Neuf served as more than just a means of transportation; it was an integral part of Parisian culture and society. Illustrated by Carlegle in 1935 for Emile Magne's book "Time of the Great King" this particular print has found its way into private collections over time. Preserved by The Holbarn Archive, it continues to provide us with an invaluable window into history – reminding us of the lively spirit that once animated one of Paris' most iconic landmarks.
