EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative oil painting by Georges Aufray captures the timeless charm of Maison de Balzac, located at rue Berton in the affluent 16th arrondissement of Paris, France, in the year 1916. The Maison de Balzac, a historic building that now serves as a branch of the Musée Carnavalet, was once the residence of the renowned French writer, Honore de Balzac. Aufray masterfully depicts the elegant façade of the building, with its ornate architectural details, set against the backdrop of a bustling Parisian street. The vibrant colors and impressionistic brushstrokes bring the scene to life, capturing the essence of the city in the early 20th century. The painting is a testament to the artistic movement of the time, with elements of both impressionism and pointillism evident in the way the artist has rendered the building and the people going about their daily lives on the street below. The use of oil on canvas adds depth and texture to the image, making it a true work of art that transports the viewer back in time. The scene is filled with a sense of history and heritage, as the building that once housed one of France's greatest literary figures now stands as a cultural institution for all to enjoy. The painting invites us to imagine the lives of the men and women who walked these streets over a century ago, and to appreciate the enduring beauty of Paris and its rich artistic and literary history.
