Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book leads us on a journey through the vibrant tapestry of Parisian life in the bohemian hub of the Quartier-Latin during the 1840s. At the heart of this lively community stood La Childebert, a veritable hive of creativity and camaraderie. The author paints a vivid picture of the colorful characters who inhabited this establishment, from the enigmatic Bouginier, whose caricature became an iconic symbol of the era, to the eccentric and passionate individuals who congregated within its walls. Beyond the walls of La Childebert, the author explores the rich artistic landscape of the time, immersing readers in the world of painting, theater, and student life. This book offers a unique glimpse into a fascinating chapter of Parisian history, capturing the spirit of a time when creativity and youthful fervor reigned supreme.
