About Artwork: (ca. 1880–81) "Béraud was known for dashing about Paris in a specially outfitted carriage that allowed him to sketch the city’s crowds on the fly. Here, he depicts the lively traffic on the Pont des Arts, a footbridge spanning the Seine between the Institut de France and the Cour Carrée of the Louvre. A gust of wind leaves dignified gentlemen clutching their top hats and friskily lifts the skirts of a chic young woman, revealing a naughty glimpse of petticoat. Such wittily observed slice-of-life scenes were Béraud’s trademark." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
