EDITORS COMMENTS
High Life in the Bois de Boulogne, L'Allee des Cavaliers in 1842,1898 (litho) captures a vibrant scene from French society during the Bourbon Restoration. This handcoloured lithograph by Francois Courboin depicts an elegant fop, donning a top hat, cravat, waistcoat and coat with tails, engaging in flirtatious banter with a woman on horseback. The woman is dressed in a stunning full dress with sleeves à la jardinière. The image showcases the opulent lifestyle of the upper class as they enjoy horseriding at the prestigious riding course within Bois de Boulogne. Horseriding was not only considered a sport but also symbolized wealth and status during this time. Created as an illustration for Octave Uzanne's book "Fashion in Paris" published in London by William Heinemann in 1898, this lithograph reflects the esthetics and fashion trends of late 19th-century France. It provides us with insight into French culture and society under King Louis Philippe I's July Monarchy. With its vivid colors and attention to detail, Courboin's artwork transports us back to an era characterized by elegance and refinement. The composition invites viewers to appreciate both the beauty of fashion and the picturesque surroundings of Bois de Boulogne. This print serves as a reminder of France's rich history while showcasing its enduring influence on European art and style.
