"Dimanche: A Day of Pleasure and Engravings" Sundays have always been a source of joy and relaxation for many. From the forced ascension of young Guerin in Nantes on July 16, 1843, as depicted in an engraving from "Plaisir Du Dimanche, " to the vibrant chromolitho titled "Sunday, " these images capture the essence of this cherished day. In London, an engraving aptly named "Sunday in London" showcases the bustling city streets filled with people enjoying their day off. Meanwhile, King Saint Louis is depicted depositing relics brought from the East into the holy Chapel of Paris on Quasimodo Sunday, April 25, 1248 - a moment immortalized by Albert Lenoir's captivating engraving. The Hippodrome witnessed another remarkable event on October 22, 1850 -the ascension of aerial performers known as "Les Poseuses. " The Illustration's engraving beautifully captures this spectacle that took place on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Moving forward to more modern times, we find ourselves immersed in Montsouris Park through an oil painting depicting a view with its iconic kiosk. This serene scene likely dates back to around 1908-1910 when Sundays were still cherished moments spent outdoors. But Sundays are not just about leisure; they also bring cultural experiences. The Madine clock ticks away while Ambassadors attend matinees and fetites - events that add charm and sophistication to this special day. For those seeking excitement and mystery, Elysee Montmartre offers ball masks every Sunday night where anonymity reigns supreme. And if you venture down to Sully Bridge in Paris' fourth and fifth arrondissements on any given Sunday, you may witness horses gracefully swimming across the river - a sight both awe-inspiring and rare. So let us embrace dimanche with open arms.
