Coachmen 

"Coachmen" is a watercolor by Constantin Guys, a French artist known for his depictions of 19th-century Parisian life. The artwork captures the essence of a carriage ride with three coachmen in elaborate costumes, hinting at a scene of elegance and social hierarchy. The loose, expressive brushstrokes, and the contrasting colors, create a lively and dynamic composition that evokes a sense of movement and energy. Guys' keen observation of detail and his ability to convey the character of his subjects are evident in this intimate portrayal of a moment in 19th-century Parisian society.
