Giovanni Boldini's success is inextricably linked to Paris, where he moved in 1872, and he soon achieved considerable success establishing himself as the most fashionable portrait painter in the city, and, in a short time, of international high society. In this 'Galant Scene', we note the swirling material dynamism that distinguishes his more experimental painting. His rapid brushstroke, imbued with light and color, highlights the charm and luxury of Parisian society. Through the paintings of Giovanni Boldini we have the opportunity to immerse ourselves in the world of vices and ease that characterized the belle époque, experiencing for a few moments the Parisian charm of the end of the 19th century.
