(petite scène de la ville quotidienne, XLIV, la vue antique)  

vue renouvelée sur les tours de Notre Dame au milieu d’une petite allée tortueuse et isolée de la colline du Père-Lachaise, comme une promenade dans un antique rêvé ; une vue séculaire rappelant celle des gravures du XVIIIème siècle, car ici les arbres cachent encore le moderne des siècles récents ; une petite fenêtre hors du temps saisi par le regard et le hasard, une vue rare et précieuse, celle que pouvait observer un Balzac qui repose au carrefour que termine cette allée, une vue qui rappelle son Paris désormais disparu

True to Nature: Open-Air Painting in Europe 1780–1870

“In this unique exhibition, explore the inventive ways artists in the 18th and 19th centuries recorded fleeting moments in nature, capturing the effects of light, drama, and atmosphere first-hand in the open air. The exhibition unites for the first time more than 100 oil sketches from the remarkable collections of The Foundation Custodia in Paris, The National Gallery of Art in Washington, and The Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, together with a distinguished private collection of sketches, never before seen in public. Featuring works by artists including John Constable, Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, J.M.W. Turner, Edgar Degas and Louise-Joséphine Sarazin de Belmont, the thrill of these painters’ encounters with nature is palpable in their highly skilled, rapidly painted sketches. ...”

Evidence of Napoleon’s awareness of the concept of vampires

(Tombstone in Père Lachaise Cemetery, by Louise-Joséphine Sarazin de Belmont)

“They [vampires] even confronted Napoleon during his reign, as exemplified by an anecdote from the early nineteenth century about Napoleon’s reaction to a story about a strange man named Rafin who disappeared every night into Père-Lachaise Cemetery only to reappear in the morning: when Napoleon heard the this, he reputedly asked if Rafin was “a vampire” (Mozzani 1988: 212-14). Certainly, the general population across Europe at the turn of the nineteenth century found them of interest, especially as their literary place began to take hold.”
