EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Local fetes around Paris, series, 1830, Beaugrenelle" takes us back in time to the vibrant and festive atmosphere of early 19th-century France. The image showcases a scene from one of the local fetes held near Paris during that period. In this colorful lithograph by Victor Adam, we are transported to Beaugrenelle, where a lively celebration is taking place. The focal point of the picture is a grand tent adorned with flags and decorations, symbolizing the heart of the festivities. Surrounding it is a bustling crowd eagerly participating in various attractions and activities. One particularly intriguing element captured in this artwork is the presence of individuals on stilts known as "echasses". These stilt-walkers add an air of whimsy and spectacle to the event while showcasing their impressive balancing skills. Their towering figures create an enchanting contrast against the backdrop of excited onlookers. The photograph also highlights cultural traditions such as the crowning ceremony for a rosiere (a young maiden chosen for her purity) and an intriguing game called "mat de cocagne" which involves climbing up greased poles to claim prizes at their summit. Through this snapshot frozen in time, we catch glimpses into French history, witnessing moments filled with joyous celebrations and communal revelry. It serves as both a visual feast for our eyes and a window into past customs that have shaped Parisian culture throughout centuries gone by.
