EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph depicts the shopfront of Shulers Butchers, located at 45 rue Turenne in Paris, during the First Empire era, circa 1800. The image is an exquisite reproduction from Hector-Martin Lefuel's Parisian Stores of the First Empire, published in Paris by Albert Morance in 1925. Hector-Martin Lefuel (1810-1880) was a renowned French architect, best known for his contributions to the completion of the Louvre and Fontainebleau palaces. His meticulous watercolors served as the basis for this stunning lithographic representation of Shulers Butchers. The butcher shop's facade is adorned with intricate architectural details, including ornate columns, arches, and a decorative cornice. The large display window showcases various cuts of meat, arranged artfully to entice passersby. A butcher, dressed in traditional attire, stands behind the counter, ready to serve his customers. The lively atmosphere of the Parisian street is captured in the background, with people bustling about and horses and carriages lining the cobblestone street. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this lithograph offer a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Paris during the First Empire period. This beautiful piece is not only an exquisite work of art but also a valuable historical document, providing insight into the daily life and commerce of Paris during this time. The handcolored lithograph is a testament to the skill and artistry of Hector-Martin Lefuel and the artisans who brought his vision to life.
