EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 19th century with this print of a rollercoaster in the Jardin Baujon. Imagine being part of fashionable society, enjoying the thrill of ""aerial walks"" as cars are pulled up the central ramp before speeding down fast chutes to the left and right. The excitement is palpable as people experience the rush of adrenaline and laughter fills the air.
Intriguingly, a cafe occupies the central arches below, adding an element of sophistication to this exhilarating scene. It's a snapshot of a bygone era where leisure activities were intertwined with social gatherings and elegant attire.
This hand-colored engraving from Pierre de la Mesanger's Le Bon Genre transports us to a time when rollercoasters were known as "Russian mountains" and were considered cutting-edge entertainment for those seeking thrills and adventure.
The details captured in this print - from the elaborate costumes worn by attendees to the intricate design of the rollercoaster itself - offer a glimpse into a world where amusement parks were emerging as popular destinations for recreation.
Let yourself be transported back in time with this enchanting image that captures both the spirit of fun and elegance that defined society in early 19th-century France.
