EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, created by R.V. after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris, published in 1898 by William Heinemann in London, offers a glimpse into the fashionable and elegant society of 19th-century France. The scene is set on Boulevard des Italiens, opposite the first Cafe de Paris, where two bearded dandies in redingotes and top hats are intently watching a woman on a horse. Dressed in a long riding habit with a crinoline skirt, bows, and a bonnet adorned with ribbons, the woman exudes grace and elegance as she rides side-saddle. The cafe, one of several popular restaurants on the boulevard, serves as a backdrop to this fashionable tableau. In the foreground, a corbeil steamboat named "Passengers" is docked on the River Seine, suggesting that the woman may be preparing for a journey. Her cashmere shawl is draped over her shoulders, adding an extra layer of warmth against the chill of the river breeze. The image also highlights the various modes of transport available during the Bourbon Restoration period, including the chemin de fer (railway) and the bateau vapeur (steamboat), which revolutionized travel and transportation. The bridge in the background, likely Pont Choisy, adds to the picturesque scene. This enchanting illustration not only showcases the fashionable attire of the time but also offers a glimpse into the cultural esthetics of French society during the July Monarchy. The attention to detail and the vibrant colors of the handcoloured lithograph make it a stunning addition to any collection of 19th-century art and fashion.
