Obelisk of Luxor and the Place de la Concorde, 1891 - A Glimpse into 19th Century Paris
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the grandeur of the Obelisk of Luxor and the Place de la Concorde in 1891. The obelisk, standing at an impressive height of 22.83 meters and weighing a staggering 230 tons, proudly marked the entrance to the Amon temple at Luxor before being installed in Paris in 1836. The artist, Emmanuel Lansyer, skillfully portrays this iconic landmark surrounded by the bustling energy of its surroundings. The octagonal square is adorned with magnificent fountains that grace its two centers while statues representing major French cities adorn each corner. Lansyer's painting was originally created for display at Salon de Lettres in l'Hôtel de Ville, showcasing his talent for capturing intricate details and vibrant colors. In this scene, we catch a glimpse of daily life as a flower seller tends to her trade amidst the lively atmosphere. This artwork not only showcases Lansyer's mastery but also provides us with a window into nineteenth-century France. It allows us to appreciate both the architectural beauty and cultural significance of this historic location. As we gaze upon this stunning print today, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand one of Paris' most iconic landmarks during an era when artistry flourished alongside societal transformation.
