EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the bustling streets of 19th century Paris. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with musicians, known as "The modern Ossian (man orchestra) and 'The singers or the musards of the docks'". These talented individuals bring life and melody to the city's cobblestone pathways. In this snapshot, we see a diverse group of street performers passionately playing their instruments. A drummer energetically beats his drum, creating a rhythmic foundation for the ensemble. Beside him stands a harpist gracefully strumming her instrument, adding an ethereal touch to the music. A tambourine player adds percussive flair while a flutist fills the air with enchanting melodies. Each musician contributes their unique talent, forming an orchestra that captivates passersby with its harmonious symphony. This image captures not only the beauty of these skilled musicians but also highlights their importance in bringing joy and entertainment to everyday life on Parisian streets. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been deeply ingrained in society, even during simpler times. Thanks to photographer Leonard de Selva's keen eye for detail, this historical moment is preserved for generations to come. As we gaze upon this photograph from Musee Carnavalet in Paris, we are transported back in time and can almost hear the lively tunes echoing through those charming old streets once more.
