About the piece
Painted in 1899 by Jean Béraud, this work is a quintessential chronicle of Parisian life during the Belle Époque. The scene depicts a diverse crowd spilling out from the grand arched entrance of the music conservatory onto the rain-slicked pavement of a city street. Béraud's characteristic attention to social detail and atmospheric perspective perfectly captures the damp, overcast light and the bustling energy of the late 19th-century French capital.
