Fine Art Prints From Mary Evans Picture Library
Moulin de la Galette, Montmarte, Paris
Promotional postcard for the Moulin de la Galette. The Moulin de la Galette is a windmill and associated businesses situated near the top of the district of Montmartre in Paris. Since the 17th century the windmill has been known for more than just its milling capabilities. Nineteenth-century owners and millers, the Debray family, made a brown bread, galette, which became popular and thus the name of the windmill and its businesses, which have included a famous guinguette and restaurant. In the 19th century, Le Moulin de la Galette represented diversion for Parisians seeking entertainment, a glass of wine and bread made from flour ground by the windmill. Artists, such as Renoir, van Gogh, and Pissarro have immortalized Le Moulin de la Galette; likely the most notable was Renoirs festive painting, Bal du moulin de la Galette. Date: circa 1905

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the charm of Montmartre's iconic Moulin de la Galette in this photograph from the early 1900s. Located at the heart of Paris' historic Montmartre district, this windmill and its associated businesses have been a beloved landmark since the 17th century. The Debray family, who owned and operated the mill during the 19th century, were renowned for their production of a traditional brown bread, galette. This delicious bread, made from flour ground by the windmill, gave the mill and its businesses their name and became a favorite among Parisians. Le Moulin de la Galette was more than just a mill; it was a destination for Parisians seeking entertainment, a glass of wine, and a taste of the famous galette. Artists, including Renoir, van Gogh, and Pissarro, were drawn to the lively scene and immortalized the windmill in their works. In this photograph, taken circa 1905, we see the windmill in all its glory, standing tall against the Parisian skyline. The buildings and businesses surrounding the mill add to the scene, creating a bustling and vibrant atmosphere that has endured for centuries. Join us on a journey back in time and experience the history and charm of the Moulin de la Galette, a true Parisian icon.
