More about this artwork

Jean Béraud's painting "Le boulevard Montmartre, devant le théâtre des Variétés, l’après-midi" (1885) captures an evocative scene of Parisian life in the late 19th century. The artwork skillfully portrays the bustling activity along the famed Boulevard Montmartre. Distinguished by its fluid brushstrokes and meticulous attention to the interplay of light and shadow, the painting depicts a typical afternoon in front of the Théâtre des Variétés.The composition is animated with figures adorned in the fashion of the period. Men wearing top hats and women in elaborate dresses embellished with hats create a lively crowd. These figures are each rendered with individual attention, yet they blend seamlessly into the dynamic scene. The architecture of Paris forms a grand backdrop with detailed columns and fashionably large and enticing shop windows, reflecting Béraud's fascination with contemporary urban life.Foregrounding the daily interactions of urban dwellers, Béraud's work is a visual documentation of the social life in Paris during the Belle Époque.
