Synopsis
A saucy, light-hearted look at life in Paris before the Great War when life was enjoyed to the full and the pursuit of the grisette, actress and artists' model was high on the list of male preoccupations., A homage to Parisian frivolity, wit and satire from the early twentieth century as revealed in the pages of one of the most successful magazines of the period. A saucy, light-hearted look at life in Paris before the Great War when life was enjoyed to the full and the pursuit of the grisette, actress and artists' model was high on the list of male preoccupations. La Vie Parisienne was a magical name which proclaimed itself proudly as the masthead of a way of life in which frivolity, wit and satire were as important and as relevant as literary and political intellectualism. This very popular journal attempted a fresh mix of humorous cartoons, short stories, sharp little tales of fashion-folk, columns of aphorisms on such subjects as marriage or love and acid comments about all and sundry, music, art, theatre, the races, sports and the stock exchange. Somewhat surprisingly, the mixture took. Founded in 1863, Parisians bought it in sufficient numbers week after week to ensure its survival for over a century., A saucy, light-hearted look at living in Paris before the Great War, when life was enjoyed to the fullest and the pursuit of the grisette, actress or artist's model was high on the list of male preoccupations.La Vie Parisienne was a magical name which proclaimed itself proudly as the masthead of a way of life in which frivolity, wit and satire were as important and as relevant as literary and political intellectualism.
