EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Paris's historic Boulevard des Capucines, circa 1890s. The bustling street, now known as Boulevard Capucine, is named after the Capucine Monastery that once stood nearby. In this image, we see the iconic Théâtre Olympia, with its ornate facade and marquee, drawing a crowd of onlookers. The scene outside the theater is a vibrant tableau of Parisian life. People of all ages and classes mill about, some deep in conversation, others engrossed in the street performers or the various vendors hawking their wares. The fashionable attire of the era is on full display, from elegant women in crinoline gowns to dapper gentlemen in top hats and frock coats. The Boulevard des Capucines was a popular destination for Parisians and tourists alike, with its numerous theaters, cafes, and shops. The area was known for its lively atmosphere and was a hub of cultural and artistic activity. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and vibrant energy of Paris during the late 1800s. The image, from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, is a stunning reminder of the allure and charm of Paris in the 1890s. Its intricate details and authentic portrayal of daily life make it a must-have for anyone with an appreciation for history, art, or the City of Light.
