EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning oil painting by Paul Louis Delance, titled 'Eiffel Tower and the Champ-de-Mars, in January 1889,' transports us back in time to the historic moment when the Eiffel Tower first graced the Parisian skyline. The painting captures the unfinished tower, with its lattice structure standing proudly against the wintery backdrop of the Champ-de-Mars and the River Seine. The Champ-de-Mars, a large public greenspace located in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, is depicted in the painting as a tranquil and serene landscape, dotted with boats moored along the riverbank. The steamboats and tugboats add a sense of movement and industry, reflecting the transportation revolution that was taking place during the 19th century. Delance masterfully captures the essence of Impressionism in this painting, with its vibrant colors and loose brushstrokes. The painting is now housed in the Musée Carnavalet in Paris, a historic institution dedicated to the history of Paris and France. This artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of France and the Universal Exhibition of 1889, which marked a turning point in the country's modernization and global influence. The Eiffel Tower, which was originally intended as a temporary structure for the Universal Exhibition, became a symbol of Parisian pride and a must-see tourist attraction. Delance's painting captures the tower in its raw, unfinished state, adding to its allure and historical significance. This painting is a must-see for art lovers, history buffs, and anyone with a fascination for Paris and its iconic landmarks.
