La Fête nationale au Boulevard Clichy (National Holiday on the Boulevard de Clichy)

Félix-Hilaire Buhot

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an urban scene. The central image shows a bustling street with a prominent lamp post dividing the scene. The street features figures in Victorian-era attire, a small dog, and buildings draped in flags. The image is surrounded by a border showing scenes of carriages, riders on horseback, and leisure activities. The style of the drawing evokes urban life with social interactions and a festive atmosphere.
