EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite oil painting, titled 'Venetian-style feast (central part)', was created by the renowned French artist Louis Candide Boulanger between 1846 and 1851. The painting transports us back in time to the 16th century, as we witness a grand Venetian banquet unfolding before our eyes. The central focus of the painting is a long, elegantly set table, laden with an array of sumptuous fruits, including ananas sativus, or pineapple, a luxury item that was highly prized during this period. The scene is further enlivened by the presence of a belfry and bell tower, reminiscent of the iconic campaniles that dominate the Venetian skyline. The bell tower serves as a striking backdrop to the feast, while also symbolizing the passage of time and the call to celebration. The painting is populated with a lively group of men and women, dressed in the fashion of the day, engaged in the joyous act of feasting. Some are holding up plates and glasses in jovial camaraderie, while others are in the midst of serving their fellow revelers. The servants, too, are in on the fun, their faces reflecting the same sense of merriment as their employers. The painting is a testament to the rich heritage of art and history, and is now part of the esteemed collection of the Musee Carnavalet in Paris. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the painting transport us to a bygone era, inviting us to partake in the romanticism of the 19th century and the allure of the Italian peninsula.
