The artwork titled “Moving to the Bois de Boulogne” was created by Giovanni Boldini in 1909. It belongs to the Realism art movement, measuring 228 x 118 cm, and falls within the genre of portraiture.
In the artwork, a man and a woman are depicted gracefully walking through the Bois de Boulogne, a large public park in Paris. The woman is elegantly dressed in a black ensemble with a wide-brimmed hat, and the man is similarly fashionable in a suit and top hat, holding a cane. The brushwork captures the movement and detail of their attire, reflecting the sophisticated and dynamic social atmosphere of the early 20th century. The background, with the blend of natural tones and the depiction of trees, serves to complement the refined yet leisurely stroll of the figures, encapsulating a moment of serene urban leisure.
