EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Promenade Bourgeoise" takes us back to 19th century Paris, immersing us in the world of the French bourgeoisie. The image showcases a fashionable couple strolling through the streets, exuding prosperity and elegance. The man is dressed impeccably in a frock coat and a top hat, known as haut de forme, which was a symbol of high social status at that time. His attire reflects his affluent lifestyle and impeccable taste. Meanwhile, his female companion dons a bonnet adorned with lace, adding an air of sophistication to her ensemble. As they walk hand in hand, it's impossible not to notice the patriotic badge pinned on the man's lapel - the tricolore flag proudly displayed. This small detail hints at their strong sense of national pride during this period. The scene captures both fashion trends and societal norms prevalent among the French bourgeoisie during this era. It offers us a glimpse into their opulent lives while also reflecting the cultural identity of Parisian society. Displayed by Musee de la Ville de Paris at Musee Carnavalet, this color lithograph beautifully encapsulates an important chapter in history when fashion played an integral role in defining one's social standing.
