Au Paradis des Enfants 1893

"Au Paradis des Enfants" is an etching by American artist Joseph Pennell, created in 1893. The print, measuring 4 3/8 x 7 7/8 in., depicts a lively scene in a Parisian park. Figures are shown sitting in a cafe, enjoying the outdoors, with a light, delicate touch. Pennell's signature, "Pennell 1893", is visible in the bottom right corner. This etching, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, exemplifies Pennell's keen eye for capturing the energy and charm of everyday life in turn-of-the-century Paris.
