Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Fashion in Paris: The Various Phases of Feminine Taste and Æsthetics From the Revolution to the End of the Xixth Century
Each of the coloured illustrations is a faithful witness, a complete representation, of some corner in Paris, vanished now, or utterly changed. Fashion figures therein only as a logical and indispensable accessory, and all the interest is centred in the background of the picture, which reveals one of the most fashionable aspects of our ancient city.
