EDITORS COMMENTS
This sketch by Francois Schommer, titled "Esquisse pour l'escalier des fêtes de l'Hotel de Ville de Paris: La chanson bacchique" (Sketch for the dome above the escalier des fêtes in the Hotel de Ville, Paris, between 1888 and 1899: The Bacchic Song), showcases a captivating allegorical figure that once adorned the southern landing of the grand staircase in the historic Hôtel de Ville in Paris. Dating back to the late 19th century, this evocative artwork is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of France. The female figure, dressed in flowing robes, gracefully holds a cup, symbolizing the ancient Greek god of wine, Bacchus, and the joyous spirit of song. The use of vibrant colors and oil paints on canvas or possibly cardboard adds depth and texture to the image, while the delicate pencil lines provide intricate details. Schommer's masterful depiction of the allegorical figure is a beautiful blend of artistic styles, showcasing the influences of the academic and symbolist schools. It is believed that this sketch served as a preliminary design for a larger mural or wall painting, possibly intended for the Petit Palais or another Paris museum. The Bacchic Song figure is a fascinating glimpse into the rich artistic and cultural history of Paris during the late 19th century. Her presence in the Hôtel de Ville would have added an air of grandeur and sophistication to the historic town hall, reflecting the city's enduring love for music, wine, and the arts.
