From Adrien Joly and Petit Veldeman in La Biche au Bois, 1845, to the enigmatic Joly Bey, this name carries a legacy that spans across time. In Les Deux Lions, Scene V (coloured engraving), we catch a glimpse of the theatrical prowess possessed by Actor Joly or Adrien Jean Baptiste Mussat (1776-1839). His commanding presence on stage leaves audiences spellbound. But it's not just the performing arts that bear witness to the impact of Joly. The Seller of Breakfast Cocoa, c. 1813 (hand-coloured engraving) reminds us that even everyday commodities can be transformed into works of art. Les Chanteurs (The Singers), 1893 by Felix Vallotton showcases the harmonious melodies brought forth by talented voices. Within this piece lies an essence reminiscent of Joly's spirit - passion and dedication to their craft. As we delve deeper into Paris Intense through its album cover and frontispiece from 1894 - both created by Felix Vallotton - we are transported to a city pulsating with energy, and is here that we find ourselves immersed in an atmosphere where creativity knows no bounds. Portrait of the Composer Alfred Joly, 1850 reveals yet another facet of this multifaceted name.

Aem Gretry / Joly / Elysium presents us with a tantalizing mystery waiting to be unraveled. What secrets lie within these words? Only those who dare venture further will discover their true meaning.
