Eugene Lami

Eugene Lami is a French Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Eugène Lami painted Parisian high life in the 1840s, especially ballrooms and city views in watercolour. You can spot his work in *Ball at the Hotel de Ville, Paris* where powdered wigs and crinolines swirl under gaslight. His brush caught the gilt and gilt-edged gossip of the July Monarchy—pinks, light blues, and the gleam of a polished floor. Try his *View of the Tuileries Gardens* next to step outside the ballroom and into the sunlit square.
