EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas painting, titled "The Violet Perfumery," by the Italian artist Giuseppe de Nittis, transports us back to the vibrant and bustling streets of Paris in the late 19th century. The scene unfolds at the corner of boulevard des Capucines and rue Scribe, in the heart of the 9th arrondissement, where the Maison Violet perfumery once stood. De Nittis masterfully captures the essence of city life with his rich use of color and impressionistic brushstrokes. The painting is a visual feast, with the warm hues of the sun-drenched pavement contrasting against the cool tones of the shop's window display. Pedestrians, dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, can be seen strolling along the sidewalk, their reflections casting intriguing shapes on the wet pavement. The perfumery's window display is a riot of color and fragrance, with violets taking center stage. The delicate purple blooms are artfully arranged, their sweet scent wafting through the air and beckoning passersby. Inside the shop, a woman, perhaps the perfumier herself, can be seen mixing essences and creating new blends. This painting is a precious snapshot of daily life in Paris during the Belle Époque, a time of great cultural and artistic innovation. It is now part of the collection of the Musée Carnavalet, a historic institution dedicated to the history of Paris, and serves as a reminder of the city's rich heritage and enduring allure.
