EDITORS COMMENTS
. This illustration from Le Journal des Tailleurs takes us back to the vibrant streets of 1856 Paris. In this lively scene, we witness an elegant couple embarking on a leisurely ride in a cab, capturing the essence of fashion and society during the Second Empire. The man, impeccably dressed in a frock coat and top hat, exudes sophistication with his stylish sideburns and bow tie. He confidently shakes hands with his female companion, who dons a crinoline dress and bonnet that perfectly complements her fashionable lace accessories. The footman by their side wears an eye-catching livery while holding onto the whip, ready to guide them through the bustling city.
