EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the essence of Parisian life in the 17th century as depicted in a print titled "Carrosse à cinq sous" or "Five Sous Carriage." The scene unfolds on a bustling Parisian street, where the grandeur of the city's elite is juxtaposed with the daily realities of urban life. In the foreground, a public carriage, or "carrosse à cinq sous," stands ready to transport passengers for the modest fee of five sous. The carriage, pulled by a pair of horses, is adorned with intricate decorative details, reflecting the opulence and grandeur of the time. The carriage's passengers, dressed in the latest fashion, appear to be enjoying a leisurely ride through the city, oblivious to the hustle and bustle of the street below. Meanwhile, street vendors and merchants ply their wares, while Parisians go about their daily business. The print captures the social scenes of Parisian life with remarkable detail and authenticity, providing a glimpse into the past. The year is 1662, and Paris is a city of contrasts. The opulence and grandeur of the elite coexist with the daily struggles of the working class. The print offers a rare glimpse into the lives of Parisians during this period, providing a window into the past that continues to captivate and intrigue us today. The "Carrosse à cinq sous" remains an iconic symbol of Parisian history, a reminder of a time when a simple carriage ride could transport you to another world.
