About this work
An American guidebook, published in 1928, noted, “Paris loves trees and children. One cannot think for two minutes of either subject without finding the other equally present to mind.” This lithograph portraying adults and children traversing a path in Paris’s most celebrated garden memorializes this association of the city’s parks with children.
