Evening party at Coblentz
Evening party at Coblentz (between rue Taitbout and rue Neuve-Lepelletier, Paris). A group of women and children (including a black woman) sit listening to music from a hurdygurdy man and woman with tambourine. In 1791-1792, the previously unfashionable Boulevard des Italians became the favorite promenade for the royalist partisans. To be seen there was a public profession of aristocracy, an enlistment in the army of the princes, an espousal of the interests and opinions of the French refugees in Koblentz. After 1795, it became the fashionable place for incroyables, merveilleuses, and muscadins. At night from 6 til midnight, up to 4, 000 people jostled, elbowed and bumped along this street. Handcoloured engraving from Pierre de la Mesangeres Le Bon Genre, Paris, 1817. Evening party at Coblentz (between rue Taitbout and rue Neuve-Lepelletier, Paris).
