Inglorious Artists
  1. This historical image portrays a bustling scene at an exhibition, featuring an audience in Empire-era bourgeois outfits, observing paintings at a salon. Both men and women are depicted; the men primarily wearing bicornes and top hats, and the women in long dresses. The setting and attire evoke the period distinctly characterized by such fashion elements.
