About the piece
Painted in 1882 by Jean Béraud, this oil-on-canvas work captures a quintessential moment of Belle Époque Paris. The scene depicts the Rue du Havre, with the Grands Magasins du Printemps department store prominently featured behind construction scaffolding adorned with colorful advertisements. Béraud, a master of urban genre painting, populates the foreground with diverse Parisian characters, creating a dynamic and immersive snapshot of late 19th-century city life.
