The elegance and pastimes of fin de siècle France are portrayed with great panache in La Touche’s 1903 painting. Ladies and gentlemen dressed in formal attire sit on an outdoor terrace enjoying the night; in the distant sky, fireworks crown the festive evening with shimmering gold and white light.
Have a great 2013, full of art and inspiration :)
