About this sheet

Elegant 19th-Century Lithograph by Achille Devéria – Ballroom Scene

This exquisite lithograph by Achille Devéria (1800–1857) captures the elegance and charm of 19th-century French society. The lively scene depicts a bustling ballroom with finely dressed figures engaged in conversation and dance, exuding sophistication and movement. Devéria’s masterful attention to detail, especially in the intricate costumes and facial expressions, showcases his talent for portraying the nuances of social interaction and fashion of the Romantic era.

Achille Devéria was a celebrated French artist and lithographer, best known for his genre scenes, portraits, and illustrations of Parisian life during the early to mid-19th century. His works often featured romanticized depictions of social gatherings, making him a favorite among the bourgeoisie.

This print may have been part of a larger collection or series, possibly published in illustrated periodicals, literary works, or portfolios dedicated to genre scenes of fashionable life. Devéria frequently collaborated with publishers to produce lithographic albums or contributed to popular works of the time, such as "Les Français peints par eux-mêmes" (The French Painted by Themselves), which depicted various facets of French life in the 1840s.
