Constantin Guys, known for his depictions of Parisian life, captures the fashionable world of a "Promenade in the Bois." The watercolor depicts three figures on horseback, two women and a man, against a soft, atmospheric background. Their elegant dress and refined posture suggest a leisurely stroll through the Bois de Boulogne, a popular destination for Parisians of the era. The scene, while informal in its brushwork, is undeniably captivating, highlighting Guys' ability to capture the fleeting moments of Parisian society.
