EDITORS COMMENTS
La Rue Lepic, l'angle de la Rue Puget et la Place Blanche," a captivating oil on wood painting by the Post-Impressionist artist Louis Abel-Truchet, depicts a vibrant and bustling scene in the heart of Montmartre, Paris, in the late 19th century. The painting, created around 1890, captures the essence of daily life in this historic and artistic neighborhood, located in the 18th arrondissement of the city. At the center of the composition, the steep and winding Rue Lepic meets the flatter Rue Puget at a busy street corner. The scene is filled with a rich tapestry of activity: men and women, dressed in the fashion of the time, go about their day, some carrying goods or shopping at the various stores and shopfronts that line the streets. A man pushes a handcart up the hill, while a woman, dressed in a colorful skirt and blouse, walks along the sidewalk, her hand on the arm of a child. The painting is a feast for the eyes, with its rich use of color and gradient, particularly evident in the sky and the buildings. The buildings themselves are a mix of old and new, with some displaying the classic Parisian architecture of the time, while others show signs of modernization. The Place Blanche, a small plaza at the end of Rue Puget, is filled with activity, with people milling about and children playing. This painting is a valuable addition to the collection of the Musée Carnavalet, a renowned museum in Paris dedicated to the history of the city. It is a testament to the vibrant and diverse city life of Paris in the 19th century, and a reminder of the artistic heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us today. La Rue Lepic, l'angle de la Rue Puget et la Place Blanche is a masterpiece of Post-Impressionist art, and a must-see for anyone interested in the history and culture of Paris and the 19th century.
