Parigi, 14 luglio

Giovanni Boldini

Parigi, 14 luglio by Giovanni Boldini

Boldini throws us right into the middle of a chaotic Bastille Day celebration in Paris. Flags of France, Britain, and others whip around in the wind, their red, white, and blue hues smearing across the sky like a watercolor dream. The buildings lean in dramatically, creating a dizzying perspective that mimics the excitement of the crowd below. This sketchy, energetic style was Boldini's trademark, perfectly capturing the fast-paced glamour of the Belle Époque without getting bogged down in details.
