Esquisse pour la salle des fêtes de l'Hôtel de Ville - Cotillons
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Sketch for the interior of the Hotel de Ville: Dance), is a captivating monochrome oil painting created by the renowned French artist Albert Aublet between 1889 and 1895. This masterpiece showcases a lively scene of putti, or cherubic figures, engaged in a joyful dance around a tambourine. The painting is a testament to the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of mythology and the playful energy of children. The setting is the grand interior of Paris's Town Hall, or Hôtel de Ville. Aublet's brushstrokes bring the space to life, as the putti, with their cherubic features and naked bodies, frolic and dance in celebration. The central figure, a tambourine player, strikes a lively pose, his expression filled with merriment as he leads the dance. The putti, both boys and girls, are depicted in various stages of the dance, some twirling, some leaping, and others playing musical instruments. This enchanting painting is a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of France during the 19th century. Aublet's use of color, or lack thereof, adds an ethereal quality to the scene, making it a standout piece in any art collection. The painting is now part of the esteemed collection at the Petit Palais in Paris, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. Aublet's "Esquisse pour la salle des fêtes de l'Hôtel de Ville : Cotillons" is a beautiful representation of the joy and innocence of childhood and the enduring power of music and dance to bring people together. This painting is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, French culture, or the human spirit.
