EDITORS COMMENTS
High Life in the Bois de Boulogne, l'allee des cavaliers (1842) captures the elegance and excitement of Parisian high society during the 19th century. This hand-colored lithograph, created after an illustration by Francois Courboin from Octave Uzanne's Fashion in Paris, depicts a lively scene on the riding course of the Bois de Boulogne, a popular recreational area located on the outskirts of Paris. At the center of the image, a man in high fashion attire, including a top hat, cravat, waistcoat, and coat with tails, engages in a flirtatious exchange with a woman on horseback. She wears a full dress with sleeves a la jardiniere, a fur-trimmed cape, and a muff, while her bonnet is adorned with a large bow. The pair's playful interaction takes place in front of an equestrian statue of King Henry IV, adding an air of regality to the scene. Surrounding the central figures, various activities are underway. Booths, shops, and canopies line the allee des cavaliers, offering a variety of goods and services. Charlatans, mountebanks, and quacks peddle their wares, while a boy in a cap and shirt and trousers watches the scene unfold. In the background, the iconic Pont Neuf bridge spans the Seine River, further emphasizing the urban setting. The Bois de Boulogne was a popular destination for Parisians seeking entertainment and leisure, and this image offers a glimpse into the fashionable world of high society during the mid-1800s. With its vibrant colors and lively energy, this print invites us to step back in time and experience the elegance and excitement of Parisian high life over 175 years ago.
