EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing moment in history - a general view of Paris from a hot-air balloon in 1855. Painted by the talented artist Victor Navlet, this oil on canvas artwork provides an exquisite and detailed glimpse into the magnificent city of Paris during that era. From high above, we are treated to an aerial perspective that showcases the sprawling streets, winding river Seine, and iconic landmarks that define this enchanting city. The panoramic view allows us to appreciate the grandeur of Paris as it was over a century ago. Every brushstroke brings life to the bustling metropolis below. The intricate details of buildings, bridges, and even tiny figures going about their daily lives create a sense of movement within this static medium. It is as if we are floating alongside the hot-air balloon, taking in every aspect of this vibrant panorama. The inclusion of maps and plans adds another layer of fascination to this artwork. It reminds us that behind its artistic beauty lies careful observation and meticulous planning. This painting not only captures the physical essence but also serves as a historical document preserving how Paris appeared at that time.
