EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative sketch by Paul Milliet, titled "Sketch for the town hall in 4th arrondissement: November, December, January, February, 1884," transports us back in time to the heart of Paris during the Belle Époque era. The 19th-century scene unfolds indoors, where a man, possibly a town official, stands before a rustic cottage-style town hall adorned with intricate wooden carvings and vibrant seasonal foliage. The warmth of the interior is contrasted by the wintry scene outside, where geese wander in the snow-covered courtyard, their reflections shimmering in the icy pond. Milliet masterfully captures the essence of rural life during this time, with the use of rich oil paint on canvas. The artist's deft brushstrokes bring to life the textures of the cottage's weathered walls, the intricacies of the wooden ladder leaning against the building, and the delicate details of the trees and plants. The inclusion of a chopping axe and goose feathers adds to the sense of seasonal activity and the rural heritage of the town. This work of art, which is now part of the collection at the Petit Palais in Paris, is a testament to the beauty and charm of rural life during the 19th century in France. Milliet's skillful use of color and composition invites us to imagine the stories and traditions that unfolded within the walls of this historic town hall, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the art and history of the region.
