Summary "L'Illustration, No. 2503, 14 février 1891" by Various is a historical publication written in the late 19th century. This work is a periodical that captures the cultural and social happenings of the time, primarily focusing on events, literature, music, and notable individuals, particularly in Paris. The piece provides a vivid snapshot of Parisian life, political commentary, and art, reflecting the ethos and sentiments of the period. At the start of this publication, several topics are explored, including a humorous reflection on the absence of a traditional carnival bull, which evokes nostalgia and commentary on societal changes. The narrative blends observations of urban life in Paris—such as the lively carnival celebrations and the presence of various theatrical performances—with insights into the social issues of the time, like poverty and the struggles of the artists and the lower classes. It sets the stage for a rich discussion that includes reviews of notable performances, political developments in Italy, and reflections on the evolving nature of civilization in the face of modernity, all while engaging readers in a blend of irony, melancholy, and wit.
